Sunday's Datebook

A note to our readers

Due to the large number of event cancellations brought about by the coronavirus pandemic, we have limited the daily Datebook listing.

Many of the listings for meetings and events in the Datebook were previously submitted weeks in advance, prior to the pandemic, and as a result, were out of date.

Meetings and events will not be listed in Datebook unless a group or organization makes a request by email, [email protected], or in writing to The Sentinel-Record Datebook, 300 Spring St., Hot Springs, AR 71901.
