Welcome to Historic Calico Rock The only Calico Rock in the United States |
| The Core Story: Calico Rock Organization for Revitalization, better know as CORE, was formed by concerned citizens about the loss of business on Main Street and the need to it spruce up . The term "front door" for Calico Rock became a vision and work was started. The first meeting there were four people and each week following the group grew and now here are 25 members. Core was established in 2007 as a non-profit organization for the betterment of Historic Main Street, Calico Rock. In 2012 it applied for the 501c status and it was granted. With the help of Hamburger Helper Grant we were able to refurbish Main Street with reproduction street lights and poles similar to those in the 1920 and decided to go GREEN with solar. Each of the poles and banners had sponsors with the donors' names displayed. Next on the list was the mural that depicts Calico Rock past and present. This has also been an asset with people stopping and taking pictures and asking questions. There is more work ongoing with additional poles sponsored and places on Park Street and Phase three is down Highway 56. |
