CONWAY — It takes a village, as they say, and that was especially true in Conway Village this past Thursday night, as an estimated 200-plus people brought their lawn chairs to Pequawket Park to enjoy the music of Dennis and Davey in a benefit for Starting Point.
Organized by Rick Tibbetts of the MWV Hogs Alumni 1975-1995, the event featured great food, raffle prizes and entertainment.
