Mena, AR
We would love to have you visit Arkansas during Christmastime! You will stay with a family in Mena, Arkansas, a small town in the Ouachita mountains. We will visit Hot Springs, dig for diamonds in Murfreesboro and spend a couple of days in Oklahoma learning about Native American history by visiting the Five Civilized Tribes Museum in Muskogee, Will Rogers Museum north of Tulsa and Sequoah's Home. We will visit the state capitol of Arkansas and other points of interest in Little Rock. We will also visit the Heifer Project International at Perryville, Arkansas and the Blanchard Caverns.
The weather in Arkansas is very unpredictable during the month of December- could be snowing or possibly a light sweater will suffice. The past two Christmases we have enjoyed snow!
Our Christmas International House project is sponsored by Arkansas Presbytery and we welcome you to the Natural State!
