First lady Janet Huckabee will be one of
three 2004 inductees into the Arkansas Outdoor Hall of Fame.
The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission says Janet Huckabee was
one of the key figures in passing a conservation sales tax in 1996,
when she and the governor led a four-day trip down the Arkansas
River. The governor took a bass boat and the first lady rode a jet
ski. She also has helped promote many Arkansas outdoor programs.
Janet Huckabee, Ron Duncan of Springdale, and Larry Grisham of
Jonesboro will be inducted at an October First banquet at the
Statehouse Convention Center.
Governor Huckabee was inducted in 2000.
The commission, the Arkansas Game and Fish Foundation and Ducks
Unlimited sponsor the 12-year-old hall of fame.
