Arrow Rock has been carefully restored. One the Boardwalk on Main Street is this fine little post office in a one-story brick building circa 1904. Arrow Rock and Franklin were important starting points for travelers on the Santa Fe Trail. They would cross the ferry on the Missouri River and then load up their wagons for the long trip including filling their barrels with fresh water from the big spring.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.
A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.
If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
