There are lots of things to do and see in Arkansas. We'd like to introduce you to some of our favorites. Links to web pages for these are highlighted in blue.

• Hot Springs National Park. There is a natural hot spring that bubbles up from the ground. Here you can take a walk along Bathhouse Row and tour a restored bathhouse, or walk along the Promenade like the ladies and gentlemen used to do. After you are tired from walking, you can sit and soak your feet in the hot spring. Hot Springs is also the location of our spring Boy Scout Expo.



• DeGray Lake. This is where our scout reservation is. It's a great place to swim, fish, camp and hike. The Ross Rhodes Scout Reservation (site of the annual Fun With Son Campout) is located here.



• Rivers. The Saline River, and the Buffalo National River are great to go canoeing. We learned to canoe on the Saline River last year, and had a cookout afterwards. It was great fun.



• Pinnacle Mountain. This mountain looks out over the Arkansas River, and you have a great view from there. It's a LONG hike up, but the view is worth it. If you climb the mountain, be sure and take a canteen. Every year a Rendevous is held in the park at the foot of the mountain. The Rendevous is where Indians and history buffs reenact a frontier rendevous complete with Indian dancing and fur trading. You can learn to throw a tomahawk, ride a pony, or steer a canoe.



• The Ozark Mountains. The Ozark Adventure Page. Arkansas is blessed with beauty. Besides wonderful scenery there is camping, hiking, boating and fishing at many lakes and camp grounds.



• Buffalo National River. The Buffalo National River is one of the longest freeflowing rivers in the United States. It was made a National Park to protect it. It is a wonderful place for hiking, camping and canoeing.
