Calico Rock Museum to Honor Gene Lockie October 29th!!

 

Since moving to Calico Rock from Iowa many years ago, Gene Lockie has been a fixture of our community. Actively promoting Calico Rock through the Chamber of Commerce, Ozark Gateway Tourism Council, and the Calico Rock Museum Foundation board. Gene was instrumental in negotiating with Complete Access to locate their factory in Calico Rock during his time on the board of the Calico Rock Industrial Development Corporation.

Gene has served on the Calico Rock School Board, is an active member of the Lions Club, 20/20, and Calico Rock Cumberland Presbyterian Church. Gene has been honored as a Calico Rock Ambassador and is constantly promoting our community.

Gene was a founder and founding trustee of the Calico Rock Museum which has welcomed nearly 200,000 people to Calico Rock over the past eight years. Gene’s influence has been far and wide and his allegiance and support of our community is unquestioned. Gene will be retiring from the museum foundation board after eight years of service at the end of this year.
