William and Vacle Olive graciously provided 230 acres of wooded pasture in Walcott, Ark., to Children's Homes several years ago. This land borders Crowley's Ridge Youth Camp, and it provides a wonderful place for trail rides (for CRYC campers and CHI residents) and fishing excursions. It also provides hay and pasture for our cattle and horses.
