“The end is reconciliation; the end is redemption; the end is the creation of the Beloved Community. It is this type of spirit and this type of love that can transform opponents into friends. It is this type of understanding goodwill that will transform the deep gloom of the old age into the exuberant gladness of the new age. It is this love which will bring about miracles in the hearts of men.”~MLK

Did you know?
Sparks Landing has quite a unique history! And, still as beautiful today!!!

"At the foot of the hill some 100 yards from the town is Lake McNatt, a beautiful body of Water, formed by the dam across Indian creek, and is about three miles in length by half a mile wide, its waters as clear as crystal and varying in depth from five to fifteen feet, its banks diversified with beautiful valleys, wooded hills and rocky cliffs, whose tops, in places, project for many feet over the water and are reflected in its clear depths. On this lake has been built a beautiful little side-wheel steam boat capable of seating about seventy-five persons, and nothing is more enjoyable than a ride around the lake on this boat, giving one a fine view of the wooded hills and rocky cliffs on one side, and the fertile valleys and cultivated fields on the other, and at the foot of the lake the mill, with its whir and bustle and busy scenes of active life, reminding us that we are not wholly segregated from the great work-day world about us. Nowhere in all the great Southwest can there be found within the same radius a more beautiful or picturesque region than that immediately surround this place." – The History of McDonald County
