"Viva Cuba's vintage river mural, The River, depicts the use of the river as a source of recreation, beauty and transportation. Since Missouri is a form of the Indian word Missour-ly meaning canoe, it is an appropriate subject for the ninth mural. During the 20s-40s many river resorts flourished along the rivers. The rivers were also used to transport logs to market. The mural sponsored by the Bass family of Steelville, reflects their heritage as members of Meramec, Courtois and Huzzah River families who made there living along the rivers and enjoyed the rivers' recreation" ~ from plaque
