“All A-Board” at the Casey House!

The historic 1858 Casey House has stood as a cornerstone of our community’s history for generations. As we finalize our latest restoration efforts, we are opening up a unique opportunity for history lovers, local families, and businesses to help leave a lasting legacy. Available funding from Baxter County and the State of Arkansas for renovations for Phase I fell short by $15,000.00 We need the additional money to finish the back porch and support columns. Your financial support will help us complete this Phase of the renovation.

By Sponsoring a Board for $150, you directly fund the reconstruction of the back porch and columns. It will take 100 White Oak planks to finish our back porch renovation. ($15,000)

Why Your Support Matters

Restoring a structure with this much history requires specialized craftsmanship and period-accurate materials. Your contribution ensures that authentic materials are used in the project. Structural Preservation will ensure future generations of visitors, students, and local citizens can see our history. Community Legacy allows you to become a permanent part of the story of one of the oldest structures in Baxter County.

Your support will be shared to our Historical Society: Quarterly Magazine, Facebook, and Website.

Thank you for helping us preserve our past, ONE BOARD AT A TIME.
