Small Town Values - Big City Opportunity The birthplace of President Harry S Truman, the town who can claim Wyatt Earp as one of our first constables, a midwestern city on the verge of massive growth and change with a small town atmosphere and heart ... the only thing we're missing, is you!Welcome to Lamar, Missouri, a city of just over 4,000 farmers, merchants, and families who embrace the small town way of life and endeavor to move our industry and commerce into the 21st Century and beyond. While you'll find factories and fast food here as well as the convience of major shopping centers; you'll also find a downtown square where kids still ride their bicycles and couples walk hand in hand from traditional mom-and-pop stores to quaint coffee houses & historic movie theatres. In Lamar, Missouri we know the value of an honest day's labor and how to relax when the time for work ends. Lamar has one of the country's last drive in movie theatres who is still in operation, a water park complete with a water slide even adults can enjoy, a city park full of places to picnic and for the kids to play, a city lake for an afternoon boating or fishing, a restored single screen historic movie theatre, Prarie State Park where you and your family can wander through the natural wonder of grassy fields where bison and elk still roam freely.  If natural wonders isn't your idea of fun, visit the historic Truman Birthplace and see what life was like in a simpler time, or make a 20 minute drive outside of town to visit the gravesite of Urilla Sutherland Earp - first wife of the famed lawman Wyatt Earp... or maybe it it's at summer's end visit the Lamar Free Fair on our historic downtown square. If you happen to be in town during the Spring, visit our Truman Days' Celebration or in the Fall enjoy the wonders of a great harvest season during Apple Days.Whether you are family looking for a new town to call home, a business looking for a work force to drive your company forward - located in the heart of the United States between major cities like Tulsa, Oklahoma and Kansas City, Missouri... or just someone planning a relaxing and affordable weekend vaccation - Lamar, Missouri and her citizens welcome you! Thanks for stopping by and come back again soon. |
