WHO WE ARE

We are a group of Monroe County residents (and honorary Monroe County residents!) who care deeply about enabling environmentally responsible economic development for our county in particular and the Delta in general. We came together with a passion for saving the historic White River Bridge, and now our vision is growing ever broader. We want to be a part of the process of bringing economic opportunity to the Delta. We want to see the world at large come to know the value of our homeplace and the rich resources that are accessible here.

If you would like to be a part of this exciting endeavor, please like us on Facebook, and consider joining us as a “Friend of the Bridge” with a donation of $10 or more. You can donate by simply clicking the donate button here on our website or by mailing a check payable to “Save the White River Bridge,” in care of Susan Caplener, P.O. Box 153, Clarendon, AR 72029. If you choose to donate online, you can pay by credit card (no PayPal account required), or via PayPal.
