Spirit of 2026
2026 is a big year for our country and the Searcy County area!
It's the 250th birthday of the United States of America and the 100th birthday of US Highway 65, which runs right through Marshall, Arkansas and Searcy County. We think the Searcy County, Arkansas stretch is a "Must See" when you cruise US Highway 65 for 966 miles from Clayton, Louisiana to Minnesota, or vice versa! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Route_65
