When Arkansas first became a state in 1836, how to pronounce the name of the 25th state was up for debate. Was it Arkan-saw or Ar-kansas? You can stop by Pinnacle Mountain State Park to view a traveling exhibit provided by the Old State House Museum about the topic, then visit a fur trapper camp typical of the period. Guests can interact with live players to learn about the wilderness and settlers of the Natural State.
Venue: Pinnacle Mountain State Park

Frank Foster is known as an independent thinking singer/songwriter, Foster’s huge following loves his ‘do it my way’ attitude and appealing songs and lyrics. He embodies musical independence at its highest level. He not only has taken the road less traveled, but the road almost never traveled. Acting as his own record label, management, booking agency, and publishing company, he has managed to find the success that some major label artists may never find. This rural Louisiana native and former oil field man has taken his songs from the campfire to the coliseum seemingly overnight, all the while gaining a following of fans whose loyalty is unmatched. Foster has opened for Hank Williams Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd, Gregg Allman, Jake Owen, Justin Moore, Sawyer brown, Lee Brice and Gary Allen. He will be playing at El Dorado this weekend!
