[Source: Donna Reiner] -- The Madonna of the Trail statute (memorial) in Springerville was recently refurbished and restored. The State Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) raised the money. The Arizona DAR monument was dedicated in 1928 and is one of 12 erected on the National Old Trails Ocean to Ocean Highway (Washington D.C. to Los Angeles). DAR plans to have some ceremony in the spring of 2007.
