On Saturday, Betsy Lavender will lead a team in the "Be a Part of the Cure Walk" hosted by the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute in Little Rock. It will be her second year to participate in the walk, and she hopes to raise even more money than she did last year, when her team took top fundraising honors in the individuals category.
Asa Hutchinson was in his final days as governor and Stacy Hurst in her final days as director of the state Department of Parks, Heritage and Tourism when they gathered on the Tuesday before Christmas alongside Arkansas 10 just west of Little Rock. They were there to celebrate the opening of Blue Mountain Natural Area.
