Kids Injured While Playing on Rocks Could Require Immediate Help |
The pay phones were recently defunded by the National Park Service as it has attempted to cope with deep federal funding cuts. The Chamber is working to preserve these essential communication links for visitor safety through other means of financial support.
These pay phones are essential to visitor safety. Both Steel Creek and Kyles Landing are cell phone dead zones. Both are popular destinations for floaters, hikers, horsemen and campers. Without these pay phones, park visitors could not report emergencies to rescue teams in a timely manner because there is no cell service to these areas.
Each year Arkansas House does a benefit concert and designates 50% of the proceeds to a local charity. This year Arkansas House chose this worthy Buffalo River Chamber of Commerce safety initiative.

Please come to the concert and support this important project.
this concert by "The Oriental and the Crooner" actually named Precious Jade and Harry Hazard, is a good chance for people to see Branson entertainers performing in the little quaint mountain town of Jasper...plus, they can contribute much needed funds for emergency telephone service from Kyle's Landing and Steele Creek on the upper Buffalo National River.
