The Rotary Club of Jonesboro has dedicated the new Centennial Plaza at the corner of S. Church and E. Monroe. The plaza is a gift to the community in honor of the 100th anniversary of the first rotary club meeting held in Jonesboro in August 1919. The plaza is envisioned as an outdoor gathering spot for weddings, awards ceremonies and group photos.
