Heber Lodge #17 was originally started in 1902. On January 13th, 1915 their meeting place (Cleburne County Bank building) caught fire and the Odd Fellows lost everything. It wasn't even a year later that all membership of Heber Lodge #17 ceased to exist. On 08/05/2024 The Grand Lodge of Arkansas issued a Dispensation for members in Heber Springs to resurrect the Heber Lodge. With 8 Charter members, Odd Fellowship has been brought back to Heber Springs.
