This year’s Visitors Guide hits shelves

Our latest special feature is now available: the Franklin County Visitors and Newcomers Guide 2022.

Make sure you pick up a copy of this annual publication, available at our office in downtown Russellville and select sites across Franklin County.

We have been publishing this special edition every year since 2016 to shine the spotlight on Franklin County and provide a look at all the wonderful assets we have here. As the title implies, it’s especially meant to serve tourists and new neighbors – but even long-time residents will find it a handy resource to peruse and enjoy. We have made every effort to create a beautiful product we think you’ll love to flip through – and in which you’ll take pride.

With vibrant photos and detailed textual information, this special magazine truly highlights the range of advantages our county has to offer. We love spotlighting the industries and businesses of Franklin County, from Red Bay to Russellville to Phil Campbell and everywhere in between. We prize Franklin County and Russellville schools and our police and fire departments, and we cherish our festivals, our tourist destinations and our places to learn, grow and explore in Franklin County.

Have a guest coming to visit? Pick up a copy to share with them.

Know of a new family in your neighborhood? Bring a copy along when you stop by to introduce yourself.

This publication is designed to be an ideal resource to welcome people to our corner of the state and give them an overview of everything these is to love about Franklin County.
