Meridian was selected as home for the center by the Mississippi Legislature in 2000. The board of directors has been working on details associated with the project.
Carruth has been a champion for the center since the idea was conceived.
Carruth, who speaks and entertains groups across the country, also hosts "Listen To The Eagle" weekly on radio and television in several states.
