We are so excited for SouthArk graduates, but please remember our rules and guidelines.

No helium balloons in the building as they can interfere with the fire alarm system.

Please do not park at Brookshires. Their lot is for customers only.
Thanks!

We're so excited to be having the South Arkansas Regional Hospital with us today for Healthy Heart Healthy You!

As you know, we've got a lot happening on the SouthArk campus, so we've got a parking map below to help guide you on the best place to park!

REMINDER: Please do not park at Brookshire's, their lot is for their customers, not event parking.

Thanks for your cooperation!

A quick reminder that helium balloons are not allowed inside, as they can trigger the fire alarm system.

We also ask that you not park at Brookshires; that lot is reserved for their customers.

We appreciate your cooperation.
