Water Conservation Notice

Due to last night's storm, Illinois American Water is currently experiencing a distribution issue affecting the system that serves Tuscola, Arcola, and West Prairie. Utility officials have asked communities to voluntarily conserve water while they work to restore normal service levels.

Residents are encouraged to limit water usage until further notice by:

-Delaying laundry and dishwashing when possible
-Avoiding lawn watering and other outdoor water use
-Taking shorter showers
-Turning off faucets when not in use
-Conserving water wherever practical

Your cooperation will help ensure adequate water supply is available throughout the system while crews address the issue.

We will share additional updates as they become available. Thank you for your patience and assistance.

Between the Raggedy Rally all weekend long and Children’s Day on Sunday, Arcola is gearing up for a weekend packed with fun, laughter, and small-town charm! 🎉✨

From Raggedy Ann & Andy celebrations downtown, that inlcude Bingo and a parade, to family-friendly activities at Moore Park, this is one of those weekends where there’s something happening around every corner—and you won’t want to miss a minute.

Bring the family, stroll downtown, and make some memories right here in the heart of Arcola. ❤️

The Arcola VFW Post 7862 and American Legion Post 639 will be holding their 5th Annual Flag Retirement Ceremony on Saturday, June 13 at the Arcola Community Center near the Veterans Memorial on Main Street.

The ceremony will begin following the Raggedy Ann Parade, and community members are welcome to attend and participate. Members of both organizations will be present to answer questions and assist throughout the ceremony.

Flags in need of proper retirement may be dropped off at the Arcola Public Library (drop box on site) or given directly to Bob Doweler at 217-549-9791.

Join us as we respectfully honor the American flag and those who have served our country.
