A year of dedication to volunteerism and a strong community spirit has earned Calico Rock the title of 2024 Volunteer Community of the Year. The honor was presented by Engage Arkansas during the Arkansas Municipal League’s Winter Conference in Little Rock.
Calico Rock Mayor Greg Hamby accepted the award, emphasizing the pivotal role of volunteers in the town’s success.
Hamby said, “This award reflects the heart and soul of Calico Rock. Our volunteers are the backbone of this community, and their passion and hard work make Calico Rock a wonderful place to call home. This is not just an award for the city; it’s a celebration of every individual and organization who gives their time and talent to make a difference. I couldn’t be prouder to represent our town today.”
The community’s strong culture of volunteerism is driven by efforts from groups such as the Calico Rock Community Foundation, Girls in Action, and Main Street Arkansas.
