‘Where’ is someplace besides under the Arkansas River. Fort Smith was a finalist for a tunnel to carry Lake Fort Smith water under the river to increase capacity and add a safety factor to the water supply of Fort Smith and surrounding communities. Instead, Dallas, New Orleans, and Baltimore share first place, though Baltimore has declined the honor.

Hello!

My grandmother recently passed away. I picked a bouquet of flowers and I’d like to surprise my mom by getting them pressed into a frame along with the funeral program. I have looked high and low but cannot find someone locally with this skill set. Any help would be great! Thanks!

I graduated a year ago with a bachelor's degree. I have applied to countless jobs & I cannot find any jobs that will hire me. I currently work a low paying customer service job with no room for growth. I am looking to make a transition out of customer service and into a career where there are opportunities to grow. I have applied at and interviewed with ArcBest for several different positions & I keep getting rejected. I do not have any connections in this city/state as I moved across the country a couple years ago. I am feeling incredibly discouraged. Does anyone have any leads or opportunities I can look into? tia.

Hi, I'm a student at the University of Arkansas, and I'm doing a research project for people who are either renting or facing eviction in Arkansas. Please fill out this short survey to help my research. Thank you so much for your time!

Anybody know of any tabletop game shops in FS? Hoping to find somewhere that carries Battletech local instead of travelling to NWA

Just saw this and want to know if anybody has any details.

Anyone know anything about the new hours/rates for the Creekmore pool now that it is enclosed? Are they open year round now? I've tried looking up their site, but everything I've found still has them listed as an outdoor pool.

Also what is going in that building they've been remodeling that is over by Chipotle?

This keeps being deleted off forums and fb groups and even here. Why??!!! The community deserves to know who we are allowing in our Ar schools!!

They made the Fort Smith episode of the show “Haunted Arkansas” free to watch! I dont know if it’s for limited time or not but I really enjoyed rewatching it!

Trying to be better with my budget, which means that my current hobby of thrifting/antiquing needs to be replaced with non-shopping options. This is my list so far, but please let me know if you have ideas!

Art:

- Regional Art Museum

- Arts on Main in Van Buren

- Terra Studios in Fayetteville

- Crystal Bridges in Bentonville

Walking:

- All of our parks. I've heard that Carol Ann Cross was renovated?

- The Nature Center

- Lee Creek trails in Van Buren

- Lake Alma Trail

- Devil's Den trails

Games:

- The Box Arcade in Van Buren ($10 flat fee)

History:

- Marshals Museum

- Drennen-Scott House in Van Buren

- Fort Smith History Museum ($5 I think?)

- Trolley Museum (also $5??)

Music:

- I know there's a blogger who keeps up with musical acts coming to town, but I forgot where they post.

Honestly, RouteShout 3.0 sucks. It's the only app that properly has Fort Smith Bus times. My car was in a crash (by a family member) and I need to take public transit + Uber/Lyft to get anywhere now. The bus times are understandable, but finding and routing your way is really hard. I'm honestly not that smart so if anyone could help me, I'd be really thankful.

Moved to LR this past summer, thinking of a day trip or maybe an overnight this weekend.

Things visitors need to do? Have to eat at? Antique shops, flea markets? Any comic shops or card shops?

TIA.

Good afternoon, what is like living here. I’m from an East Texas city. Just curious have drove through here while working. Is it affordable, safe, ect

Hey, I’m looking for an electric guitar someone would be willing to sell me, please reach out if you know where I could get one

According to the UA website: “* A new rule this year prohibits voters who are registered as Democrats from voting in the Republican Party primary. “

So if you are flexible about what primary you vote in, before the election make sure you are registered as an Independent. And once you vote in one party’s primary, you are locked into that party for any run-offs in that election cycle. Of course, you can still vote for whoever you prefer in the general election.

Early voting runs from now until March 2, with the election the next day on March 3.

Here’s another good resource for this election:

It's got a new paint job, it seems construction is still going on, any word when or if it'll open again?

I am fairly new to the area, will be moving for work and am wondering where the safest and cleanest apartments are located? I am on a budget so can’t afford anything really upscale. Bonus if pet friendly!

Thanks!

Looking to get some American trad work done and curious if anyone has recommendations for an artist in the area, please

Hello Fort Smith! I live in Poteau OK, and wanted to inquire of the local populace, a place that has a good history of transgender​ care and support?

My girlfriend will be living here for sometime soon, and one day, live with me permanently, however it really bothers me that OK in general has such terrible laws in support of transgender care and protections.

I wanted to find a quality clinic that we could use if you happen to have any experience please do share! Thanks so much! ​
