Crittenden County Museum Preserving Our Past
Inspiring Our Future A few individuals visualized something great to be preserved for future generations.

For years the old Missouri Pacific Railroad Depot sat in silence with doors ajar, ceilings collapsed and floors cluttered with debris. Soon, the depot was designated as the home of the Crittenden County Museum and through further efforts it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, then purchased from a Texas oil company for $1. Renovations began in spring 1987 and a decommissioned M

issouri Pacific Railroad caboose was moved to Earle. By October the museum was ready for its grand opening. Since 2014 the museum is operated by Crittenden County, AR and governed by a Board of Museum Directors.

🏆 Crittenden County Pride! 🏆

Congratulations to the Earle Lady Bulldogs & Bulldogs

STATE CHAMPIONS! 🐾🏀

To be honored on the Arkansas Senate Floor for their hard work and excellence.

Huge honor for our program! 🐾🏆
We are being recognized by the state as the only team in Arkansas where BOTH our girls and boys brought home a championship! That’s a blessing and a testament to the hard work, discipline, and pride of our student-athletes.

A special shoutout to Senator Murdock for the invite. We’ll be in attendance this Tuesday at 1:00 PM representing Earle the right way — with class, pride, and Bulldog energy.

Earle is on the map. Let’s keep making history! 🐶🔥
