UPDATE:
Since our Ranger Station is closed to the public, we are asking YCC applicants to call us at (479) 394-2382 either before or as you’re dropping off your application at 1603 Highway 71 North in Mena.
We have set up two boxes on our front porch: one for “Blank YCC Applications” and one for “Completed YCC Applications.” Place your “completed” application into the folder in the “Completed YCC Applications” box, and we’ll pick it up, as soon as you leave.
Thank you, and sorry for the inconvenience.
Take care, and good luck!!!
