The Eagle Picher Lead Company, formed in Joplin in 1916, is still in existence and supplied batteries to NASA for the space program. Those batteries provided the power that enabled the Apollo 13 astronauts to return home safely in 1970.


Located in the southwest corner of Missouri along Historic Route 66 on I-44 and MO Highway 71, Joplin is an ideal meeting and vacation spot. With all of the amenities of a large city and the down-home comfort of a small town, Joplin is the perfect combination of great service and friendly smiles.

As the fourth largest metro area in the state of Missouri, Joplin has a nighttime population of 47,000. However, each day our population swells to 250,000 as people come to Joplin to work, play, eat and shop.
