"Dan and Tina Malfroid have leased their current Burger Brothers restaurant to Alan and Kellie Shulver, who are turning the spot at 1518 4th Ave. in Conway into Burger Brothers Express. When the transition is complete, the plan is for the express location to serve burgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, fries and ice cream in five minutes or less, and will specialize in carry-out and drive-through service.

The Heroes and Villains Festival at the Frank’s Rivertown 12 Theater was a great success Friday night. Costumed actors and costumed movie goers paraded around the lobby waiting for the chance to see the movie Thor.

Music was provided by the Avengers and the Selectones. Banana Jack Murphy webcast the proceedings and HaHa the Clown painted up the kids in comic book style. Between the music, games and all around festive atmosphere, this movie opening was a Grand Opening in deed.

The class was divided into seven teams, each consisting of three to five students.  These teams offered many findings, some obscure and others quite helpful.  Let's take a look the most interesting points.

Starting with a hugely successful Fall festival and most recently a Halloween Carnival that packed 3rd Ave, it would appear that the city is establishing a trend.  With the cooperation of CCU students, Conway Parks and Recreation drew about 1,200 people downtown for games and trick-or-treating.  Downtown business owners and event planners were pleasantly surprised by the turnout.  The Conway Crawl, which in the previous few weeks had really fizzled out, experienced a major rebound as local families showed up in droves.  Tonight's Crawl will feature music by Elvis and a Snow Ball Drop by Conway Main Street USA.  Many shops will be open late, Snow Ball Drop is at 7:00pm.

Recently remodeled building provides modern features with a historic feel.

 Leases start at $500/month per unit.  Call Keith Benton at 843-234-2872 for more information
