And Lincoln residents will get the chance to see one of the Academy Awards nominees, weeks before the ceremony takes place in Holywood.

Many Arkansans do not realize they are eligible for the Earned Income Tax Credit. United Way is helping educate local residents about the credit as well as providing free tax preparation services.

And Samantha Fish will be in Fayetteville for the Bikes, Blues and BBQ festival this week…before she performs at George’s Majestic Lounge, she plays inside our Firmin-Garner Performance Studio.
State legislator Ann Clemmer throws her hat into the race for the 2nd District in the U.S. Congress. Trails in Fort Smith get a boost thanks to the Walton Family Foundation. Emergency food and shelter organizations in Northwest Arkansas get assistance money. And state health officials say that whooping cough is on the rise in Arkansas.
