Citywide Clean Up

A Huge Thank You to the over 60 volunteers who helped make

our city sparkle on April 5th. This was truly a partnership –

The Greater Eureka Springs Chamber of Commerce focused on cleaning the Gem in the Aud (it is beautiful),

The Mayors Office and Police Department allowed, for the first time ever, parking passes to volunteers.

Turpentine Creek sent over a team to help the Parks Department paint the metal and woodwork in Basin Spring Park

Arvest Bank served lunch to the volunteers and had the Arvest Jr. Bank Board help clean North Main

The CAPC opened their dumpster and sent their full team to participate

Time Bank volunteers worked in the registration office

Cornerstone Bank sent a team out to spruce up from South Main

We collected 4 pounds of cigarette butts, saving our waterways. Thank you everyone for your time and energy.
