Steamatic Bag Drive Underway 

Steamatic owner, Misty Morse Poole, has announced the 2nd annual drive to benefit local foster children, aged newborn to 17. The drive collects new or gently used backpacks, duffels, and suitcases for the more than 3500 kids in the state and local foster system.

Items can be dropped off at Steamatic – 112 Jefferson St, Hot Springs, KVRE – 122 Desoto Center Drive, in the Village, RetroFit – 315 Ouachita Ave. Hot Springs, Middleton Heat & Air in Bryant – 22039 I-3, Bryant, and ATA Martial Arts locations in Little Rock and Bryant.  

The drive begins February 23rd and runs through the end of March. Monetary donations will be used to purchase new bags.
