Record number come out for Conway Community Days, says event organizer

While attendees of the Conway Community Days might be pleased with their funnel cake, the concerts, or their place in the turtle race, organizer Connie Frost was also pleased with the turnout. “Record numbers of people,” Frost said of Saturday’s attendance. While Frost attributed Friday’s lower numbers to weather, Saturday saw droves of attendees descend into Conway for the event. Visitors parked in and around the streets surrounding the main event venue and searched for interesting booths, food and events. For more on this story, see Wednesday's LCR.
