CONWAY — The former Joe Jones Ski & Sports signs were replaced Friday to reflect the store's new company name, Sun & Ski.

"It's actually something that has been in the works for six years," said longtime store manager Joe Gardella, who noted that the store was purchased by the Sun & Ski chain of outdoor equipment retail stores six years ago but that the company had opted to keep the local store's name until now.
