Mark your calendars for the 2010 Conway EcoFest to be held at Laurel Park the second Saturday in September – Saturday September 11th, 2010.
The Conway EcoFest is a non-traditional, highly interactive, educational community event designed for all ages and diverse interests, and will take a broad and balanced look at our environment, similar to science/children’s museums. Exhibits will engage and encourage participants to explore the overlapping nature of environmental issues and our daily lives. Many practical/local opportunities will be explored as well.
Profiles Productions, a division of Independent Living Services, has sponsored this event. Representatives from Profiles Productions will be available to answer any questions you may have during the event.
Profiles Productions offers employment to over 40 people with developmental disabilities in recycling and contract work positions.

We’re putting our thinking caps on! The 6th annual Golf Ball Drop planning process has begun. Be on the lookout for super cool changes to this year’s strategy.
The Golf Ball Drop has provided Independent Living Services with over $60,000 in donations over the past five years and continues to help Independent Living Services match grants and other opportunities that make transportation, housing, employment, as well as other programs possible that are offered to our consumers.
The Development Office is meeting with UCA’s Athletics Marketing Director Matt Jordan next week to discuss a possible location for the 6th Annual Golf Ball Drop.
To be determined.
