CITY OF CAMPBELL STATION: Blind dates, rattlesnakes and a love for public service

Publicservice

City of Campbell Station issued the following announcement on Dec. 25.

Check out the feature on Mena City Councilman and District 4 Vice President James Turner on page 14 of this month's City&Town!

James Earl Turner, a Mena council member and 2021-2022 League District 4 Vice President, was born and raised right here, about five blocks from the Glennaire Construction shop where our tour of the Polk County seat in west central Arkansas near the Oklahoma border begins. His mom worked for a local bank and his dad was a contractor, founding Glennaire in the late 1950s. “He built houses, so I grew up in construction,” Turner says. “I’ve tried to get away from it but I can’t.” After several career twists and turns, Turner now runs the shop with one of his two sons, Eric, and another partner. His other son, Luke, works for Hampton Aviation at the Mena Intermountain Municipal Airport.
