President for 14 years, 1989 King and Dr. R. Q Venson Scholarship Foundation President Michael Sadler is looking for one or more locally situated active or retired educators to speak at the scholarship and awards banquet. “If I had things my way and I’ve already inquired, I would prefer to have former 1st Lady Michelle Obama as the speaker of choice that night,” said Sadler. “We have solidified our location (Hilton Memphis, 939 Ridge Lake Boulevard), date, and time (9/28/19 with the reception at 6 followed by dinner and program at 7). We are hoping to provide three local graduating seniors with scholarship money that will be of assistance during their first year of college. I gladly accepted this challenge to lead this leg of the Cotton Makers’ Jubilee because my heart is in education and because I want to be of assistance in finding that perfect location for our Memphis Cotton Makers’ Jubilee Museum.” To be put on the list of interested parties to become a member, be elected as a member of the 2019 Royal Court, apply for a scholarship or award, or for more information, call 901.496.1811 or email MCMJUBILEE@gmail.com. 24
