Retirement Reception to Honor Rick Williams
After 25 admirable years of dedicated service to the University of Arkansas, Rick Williams is retiring as supervisor of University Recreation's athletics facilities.
During his time with the department, Rick has seen thousands of students pass through the doors and over the athletic fields of the facilities he meticulously supervised, and has helped guide dozens of student-employees along their paths at UREC.
To celebrate his tenure, University Recreation will be holding a retirement reception in Rick's honor on Monday, Jan. 30. The reception, which will take place in the Student Lounge on the third floor of the HPER, will take place from 2-4 p.m. with remarks at 2:45 p.m. Visitors are welcome and are encourage to share this invitation.
