Exhibit A
MISSISSIPPI RIVER TALES MURAL
A mural will be painted on the west side of the floodwall in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. This
mural will employ the trompe Poeil style of painting, using special long-lasting paints that can hold
an image for 100 years. A 1,100 foot section of dull, gray floodwall will be transformed to look like
a beautiful stone wall. The design of the mural will transform the wall so that it will seem to have
24 separate wall archways, each containing depictions of river activity and shoreline scenes at a site
that has become the City of Cape Girardeau. The mural will extend more than two city blocks and
will certainly become a tourism attraction within the City and for passengers of riverboats stopping
at Cape Girardeau. A special mineral -based paint from Germany will be used which has
extraordinary properties to both bond to the floodwall and retain a strong coloration for many
years. Additionally, a safety rail, lighting and descriptions of the panels will be placed along the
sidewalk in front of the mural.
