CONWAY — Work is progressing on the new charitable gaming facility and restaurant with bar located at Shurfine Marketplace just north of Conway Village. It is expected to open by December.
Dick Anagnost, president of Conway Poker Room and Casino LLC, said the plan is to make substantial improvements to the mini strip mall, and do it to the satisfaction of abutters. A N.H. liquor store is also located there.
