Dry county crawford (Benton, Van Buren, Alma: house, rent, move)

[thomas3333]

This county is surronded by wet counties. I cant even get my non alcoholic
beer like odoules or bushNA. We voted in 1 percet tax raise but duh no alcohol tax because no alcohol.. Come on bubbas, its no longer the 1920s. Anyone have a movement to make crawfrod wet?

Go see the local bootlegger, all them dry counties, cities, towns, villages have at least one. Back when - Franklin County was served by Sommers, the son of Charleston's town marshal.
When I lived in Midland we under aged got our beer from old man Stenthouse. Not to worry, these white folk long time dead but the upstanding profession of bootlegger is still going good.

Yep, Mo loves the tax money. BV is just over the boarder in AR, just think of the money AR loses just from that county alone. Nita

Crawford county is like the buckle of the bible belt, it will never be made wet. Trust me, I live there unfortunately.

Ozark and Altus are in Franklin county, which has different liquor laws. I'm suprised Benton County is still wet with the influx of out of staters up there. The one thing they have that Crawford county doesn't is restaraunts are allowed to get private club permits to serve alcohol. I guess as long as they can drink when the eat, they don't care if they have to drive to Missouri or Washington county to find a liquor store. Crawford county is completely dry in every way, and I don't see that changing in the next 20 years.

You my friend are wrong. A restuarant in Van Buren was approved for a private license to sell alcohol, and is currently doing so. As well as a golf course in Alma.
