What is your favorite hobby/activity to do around Conway?
We love taking our two boys to the Tucker Creek Trail for them to ride their bikes, play in the parks lining the trail, and skip rocks in the creek. It’s so fun weaving our way through town watching them explore.
What trait do you admire most about Conway?
The fact that it’s growing like crazy but still feels like a small town with a lot of charm. The historic district, and downtown, are especially admirable because of all of the character that’s kept in those beautiful streets.
What do you hope for Conway in the future?
We hope Conway utilizes as much of the land that it has left to create a space to get our community outside and together, instead of building homes and businesses on all that’s left.
Favorite event in Conway?
Toad Suck Daze. Our 5-year-old has been asking to go since it ended last year.
What new development/addition in Conway have you enjoyed most?
We are very pro-roundabout, so all of the new ones are wonderful to us.
Where do your kids go to school and why is your family proud to be a Wampus Cat, Bulldog, Eagle, or homeschool?
Our two boys go to the incomparable UCA Child Study Center. We could not be more in love with the school and their teachers. Mrs. Megan, Mrs. Emily, and Miss Reagan are the best of the best.
When family or friends come to visit, what is a must-do?
We love going to the parks throughout the year, and of course during the summer, Beaverfork is the place to be. Outside of Conway, we always take our family and friends to see what else central Arkansas has to offer — Petit Jean and Pinnacle just to name a couple.
Meet The Neighbors is a section of the city’s community magazine, CONWAY+, and is sponsored by Coldwell Banker RPM Group.
