About Us
Western Arkansas' Mountain Frontier (WAMF) is one of 12 Arkansas regional tourism associations that participate in the Arkansas Tourist Association Regional Matching Grant Program. WAMF represents a six-county region consisting of Crawford, Franklin, Logan, Polk, Scott and Sebastian counties.
We are funded by revenue from advertising sales in the visitors' guide combined with funds from the Arkansas Tourist Association Regional Matching Grant Program. Our mission is to promote travel and tourism to our six-county region, and we use our funds to market the region to potential visitors in our key visitor markets.
