Van Buren citizens continue to amaze me with their constant desire to serve others. Thank you Ernie for all you’ve done to help VB!

It’s a special day in Van Buren as we celebrate the record-setting, Pointers Wrestling team. Congratulations Coach Petree and wrestlers, VB is proud of you!

Chicago was cold, but it was so much fun!

He is risen! Happy Easter!

Pointers are headed to State! We will be adding a game to our schedule on Monday, May 12th against Fayetteville at our place. One last time at the Field of Dreams.

We had a great Frontier Metropolitan Organization meeting today in Greenwood. Thank you, Mayor Kinslow, for leading the tour through the city. Lots of positive things happening in the River Valley!

Thank you to the Chamber for an outstanding Annual Meeting today. Congrats to all the award winners whose contributions to our community were celebrated. It was special to hear the speakers share stories about how exceptional this city is. There really is no place like Van Buren!

Legendary performance, WPS!

Thank you Rotary, Lions Club, and the Women's League for putting this together. I can't wait for July 22!

1 week away from Independence Day!

First day of freshman, sophomore, and 34th year of school!

Can’t wait until Friday!

You wouldn’t know it from the temperature today, but it’s going to feel more like Christmas this weekend! As you enjoy the cold be sure to make plans to attend the VB Christmas tree lighting on November 21.

We had the best time Friday at the Christmas tree lighting. Thank you to all who attended & all the sponsors/volunteers. It was a special night celebrating the holiday season with our community & another reminder about why Van Buren is such a special place to call home!

Happy birthday VB!
