Sharp County Low-Cost Spay/Neuter Clinic

Our last Low-Cost Spay/Neuter Clinic of the year is different from all the others that we have held. This “Thanksgiving” clinic begins on Monday not Tuesday. The clinic will have cat and small dog surgeries (15 lbs. or less) the first day and cats only on the second day. All pet owners willing to travel to the Hardy Civic Center are welcome. Please note dog surgeries begin after the cat surgeries are completed. This can sometimes require late afternoon or early evening retrievals of your pup, depending on how the day goes. We will be scheduling 100 surgeries the first day and 50 the second. Vaccinations are only available to animals that are having surgery.

TOMEKA BUTLER: Don’t just pass through West Memphis, Pine Bluff

For generations, cities like West Memphis have watched opportunity pass through on highways, railways, and waterways, often headed somewhere else. That story is changing. As chairwoman of the Arkansas Black Mayors Association, I work alongside mayors who lead some of our state’s most resilient communities. I see how hard they fight to improve infrastructure, create jobs, and prepare their cities for investment, often with limited resources and far too little recognition. That perspective compels me to share what is happening in West Memphis and Pine Bluff because their progress carries a message for communities across Arkansas.
