CONWAY — Remember when there used to be a slow season? Not any longer — especially this weekend!
On the bill today is the second day of the Conway Area Humane Society’s Bark in the Park in Schouler Park; Jen’s Friends 29th annual Climb Against Cancer at Cranmore Mountain Resort; and the Pope Memorial Library’s Bike-for-Books at Cranmore on Sept. 20.
