The Benton Wave

HON. J. FRENCH HILL of Arkansas in the House of Representatives
Thursday, June 29, 2017


  Mr. HILL. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the recent selfless 
actions of two extraordinary individuals in my district: Mr. Robin 
Creel and Mr. Danny Revis.
  Both men work tirelessly for the Benton school district 
transportation program.
  Last month, about 40 students from Shelby County in Memphis piled 
onto a bus and began their journey toward the popular Magic Springs 
amusement park in Hot Springs, Arkansas.
  Unfortunately, as they traveled down I-30, their bus broke down.
  Through the Arkansas State Police, word got to Mr. Revis that an 
entire busload of children was stranded.
  After discussion with officials of the Tennessee school district from 
which the students hailed, Mr. Creel volunteered to use a Benton school 
bus to quickly transport the Memphis students to Magic Springs, where, 
after a full day of enjoyment, a Shelby County bus would pick them up.
  Along with its well-known Benton Wave, a gesture of genuine 
friendliness noticeable throughout the city, Mr. Revis and Mr. Creel's 
commendable actions contribute to Benton's long-standing aura of 
friendship and compassion.
