 BUCKEYE:  In 1877, Thomas Newt Clanton led six
 men, three women and ten children from Iowa on the journey to
 Arizona. Clanton and his family became the first permanent Anglo
 residents to set up their home in Buckeye. Clanton along with Malin
 M. Jackson and William “Bucky” O’Neil, began building the town of
 Buckeye (originally named Sydney). The Arizona Eastern Railroad
 arrived in Buckeye in 1910, cars, a steam rail line and eventually a
 state highway by 1015, making Buckeye a center for a business
 district and other major buildings.

 Still keeping the “hometown feel” of days past, Buckeye has grown
 substantially and is predicted to have a population of 100,000 by
 2010. Annual festivities bring friends and families out to celebrate
 events such as Helzapoppin Days (which began in 1935!), which
 include a parade, carnival, dances and a rodeo. Pioneer Days and
 Countryfest are also local traditions. Enjoy warm temperatures by
 going fishing, waterskiing or boating at nearby Lake Pleasant, or
 take a hike while taking in the views of 19,840 acres of desert and
 mountains. Hit the greens at award-winning golf courses such as
 Raven Golf at Verrado or Estrella Mountain Ranch Golf Club.
 Hunting seasons find many a sportsman in the area, or shooting at
 the Buckeye Hills Shooting Range located in the Buckeye Hills
 Regional Park.
