Citizen of the Week

"Chris Crider plays a very important role in the lives of Eureka Springs' children. He is vice-president of the Eureka Springs Youth Sports Association and has played a pivotal role in bringing baseball back to town.

"He has coordinated and volunteered hours over the last month to help prepare and renovate the Van Pelt Baseball Field. With the help of Travis Holloway and Jed Bullock, there will be youth baseball played here.

"If you see Chris out in town or at a game this spring, shake his hand and give him a big thanks. His favorite saying is, 'It's all for the kids, it's all for the kids.'
