BOC will soon be home to Arkansas' first and only zipline canopy tour! Our official Web page will be up before long, but in the meantime, here's some helpful information about this new adventure activity in Buffalo River country!
WHAT IS A ZIPLINE CANOPY TOUR?

A HUGE thanks to all the great customers who rented canoes and asked us to shuttle your vehicles this past weekend. We can't recall ever seeing this many paddlers on the river, and that's saying something---we've been around a long time!

Thanks, also, to our great staff, who handled countless cars without error or mishap. Even though you were under the gun, you paid attention and delivered each customer's car with care.
