Hoppis joins Water Department

Posted Date: 07/08/2024

Tonya Hoppis is a Harrison High School and North Arkansas College graduate who has returned to Arkansas after living in Florida and Colorado for a few years.

“I’ve worked at many different jobs, from nationally known companies to small local businesses. My last job was sent overseas, so when I saw the City of Harrison was hiring someone for the water department, I felt like that was a pretty stable opportunity,” she smiled.

Tonya has three grown children, and she and her husband Duane have seven blended grandchildren, including two grand-poodles.

While living in Florida, Tonya caught the cruising bug and loves to take cruises and go camping.

Tonya told her husband after interviewing for her job, “I found my people.”  Apparently, the team agreed, and she started the first week of July.
