CONWAY — Enjoying a delicious meal and helping a terrific local cause — what better way to spend a Friday night?
American Legion Post 46, on Tasker Hill Road in Conway, has been holding a monthly fish fry for the past 30 years. Over the last few years, it has done more than serve a fresh fish dinner at an affordable price. Members have teamed up with local organizations and donated $2 from every meal to their causes.
