Beebe Hall Ribbon Cutting and Open House
04/22/2025

We are excited to announce a Ribbon Cutting and Open House for Beebe Hall on Tuesday, May 13 at noon with former Arkansas Governor Mike Beebe

Beebe Hall is named in honor of Governor Beebe, in recognition of his 30 years of service as a volunteer and advocate for the Arkansas Sheriffs’ Youth Ranches.

We are so grateful to everyone who helped make this dream home a reality for the Ranch, and we look forward to celebrating this important milestone for the organization with some of our closest friends.

WHAT: Beebe Hall Ribbon Cutting and Open House
WHEN: Tuesday, May 13, 2025 at 12pm
WHERE: Arkansas Sheriffs’ Youth Ranches, Beebe Hall is located at 49 Adolph Thomas Road, Batesville, AR 72501
WHO: ASYR Board and Staff, Donors for Beebe Hall, Batesville Area Chamber of Commerce, local officials and community members, and Ranch supporters

The Batesville Area Chamber of Commerce will be hosting the official ribbon cutting, which will begin promptly at 12pm. Please plan to arrive early and give yourself plenty of time to travel out to the Ranch, located west of Batesville near the community of Bethesda.

The ribbon cutting and remarks will take place on the front porch of Beebe Hall, and there will be an open house and a reception afterwards.

We are so grateful to our donors and our community for helping build this new home. We are excited that it is now complete, fully staffed with new houseparents, and ready to begin providing even more children a safe, loving place to call home on the Ranch.

Feel free to bring a housewarming gift of cleaning supplies or nonperishable food items to stock our pantry and help welcome our new houseparents. Or you can make a one-time or monthly donation here to support the Ranch.
