Welcome to Hope Arkansas! We've had strong ties to Hope all of our lives, for decades, and we still have many relatives and good friends there. We know the town and the surrounding communities well.
Hope is the birthplace of former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee and the 42nd President of the United States, Bill Clinton ... and world championship watermelons!
Whether
you are a newcomer to Hope, a long-time resident, or a visitor,
we trust this site will be a central source for information relative
to local
governments in the Hope and Hempstead County area, tourism, maps, newspapers, things to do, area towns, railways, photographs,
and much more!
Be
sure to visit our Hope
Arkansas Postcard Collection and Hope
Retrospective photographs, as well as our brief
history of Hope and the KCS
Railway in Hope photos!
We'll look back in the at the impact of the
railroad and how Hope was named, the,
and the downtown structures of the past that survive today!
Just as we are anchored in today's Hope,
we remain interested in its history, and share that interest
with local residents,
and visitors
alike, in this Web site.
We try to include
information about nearby communities such as Oak
Grove, Springhill, Patmos, Bodcaw, Stamps and Rosston.
We'll reach out
to Emmet,
Nashville,
Fulton, Blevins and Prescott.
Welcome to Hope!
