In 1975, Wade and his family moved from Joliet, Ill., to beautiful Bull Shoals when they purchased a resort, built Bull Shoals Bowling Lanes and then added the 178 Club Restaurant. When we moved to this area, he was in seventh grade and attended Flippin Public Schools, where he developed a strong foundation of good friends. he attended University of Arkansas in Fayetteville studying business. That is where he met his wonderful wife of 32 years, Vickie.
Wade Fox Family came back from college to the family business, the 178 Club, where he was an owner-operator. They operated a thriving business at the 178 Club and Bull Shoals Lanes, and during that time, made many friends, near and far with long-lasting relationships. He always has worked hard being in family business. It’s just the way it was, but because of that, he has a strong work ethic. In 2012, they sold the family business after 32 years, and he am excited to be on this new path with Beaman Realty.
Wade Fox scouts one thing he hated about leaving Illinois as a boy was Boy Scouts. So, when Scouting became available in this area, he wants to make sure my youngest two boys had that opportunity. He has been in the Scouting program for the past 15 years – as Cub Master when his boys were young to Assistant Scout Master for the past 10 years. He is proud to say his two boys did achieve Eagle Scout rank. He has a third son, but Scouting wasn’t available when he was young, but he is an awesome young man.
He is a member of Bull Shoals United Methodist Church and am very dedicated to her community and the surrounding area. He has served on the Bull Shoals-White River Chamber of Commerce board and always been involved with fundraisers for someone in our community in need of help.
Wade Fox with sons have lived here for 46 years, have traveled considerably and always is happy to return home to the Ozarks.
He would love to meet with you and help in any way he can to see that you find your paradise in their beautiful Ozarks. Reach out to him by phone or email, and he will be available.
