Springdale built it

   May 2, 2008

Springdale took a very different approach to building its ballpark. The referendum only passed by 13 votes. Yet Mayor Jerre Van Hoose didn’t stop and the ballpark – Arvest Park – opened this April.

Springdale didn’t wait for the perfect master plan for the area around the ballpark. Only now have they started working developing the acreage around the park.

Listen to my interview with Van Hoose – Here

BTW: Springdale’s team – Northwest Arkansas Naturals – is tied for first in the North division of the Texas League.
