81st Annual Homecoming Reunion Set for June 11, 2023
A wonderful time was had by the Bucktowners who came to Homecoming 2021 and 2022! There have been improvements to the church and we have several new trustees. Head over to the News section for details.
Please join us for the 81st Homecoming on June 11, 2023. Everyone usually arrives around 10-10:30 am, with lunch to follow. Our Homecoming tradition is in danger of being lost. So please drop by on the second Sunday in June to say hello to your family and old friends and stay awhile to chat. Better yet, get everyone together and come as a family! Let's keep Homecoming going!
We will have a box for donations. Donations may also be sent in care of Cindy Borden at PO Box 1317, Rogers, AR, 72757.
Please like us on Facebook! Look for the Buckville Church & Cemetery Association Group and the Lake Ouachita Descendants page.

What is Buckville Homecoming? Buckville Homecoming is a reunion of the former residents of Buckville, Arkansas, their family and friends, also known as "Bucktowners". Since the town was disbanded and flooded in 1950 due to the construction of the Blakely Mtn. Dam, this is the closest thing to coming home. Homecoming is an all day affair, with a meeting/church service and a pot-luck lunch served at noon.
When is Homecoming? Homecoming is every year on the second Sunday in June. Many people return each year to see family and friends, catch up on all the news, and remember loved ones.
Buckville Homecoming has been featured in the PBS documentary "Precious Memories, Our Vanishing Rural Churches", and over the AP wire in many newspapers all over the United States
