Pls I am starving. So far I tried Logan’s roadhouse, Wright’s BBQ, Big Whiskey.

Was there today, the parking lot was packed. Had to wait a bit to get the second pic until it was less busy; the whole mall was bustling. Bonus: the good variety of multi-ethnic offerings in the food court.

Does anyone know where I could get a dining room chair repaired? It's black walnut and one of the legs snapped off where the leg meets the seat. It looks like it needs someone to remove the remains of the wooden leg, craft a new one and reattach it. I've found people who repair scratches on furniture but this needs a craftsperson. Thanks for any suggestions.

New to the fort smith area and looking for ways to make friends! I’m 27 but don’t party much or go to bars, what are some fun activities in the area? (Also - it is still unclear to me if Fort Smith is considered NWA)

Bonus question - where is your favorite place to eat?

Hello everyone. To those that are searching for somewhere to play table tennis/ping pong. You may come to the Lonoke Community Center. At the moment there isn't enough people except for myself so the scheduling of the table tennis is pretty much non-existent. However once I come across other people. The tables will always be available everyday. I am searching for someone to play with. You can be any skill level. My skill level may be intermediate/beginner. Well I don't even know what to classify myself as, but I'm basically above average. Contact me or send a message in this post if you need more information.

Is there any interest from folks on this sub in creating and/or joining an NWA discord group? I see some mentions of such attempts in the past on this sub, but it's been 2-3 years since those were posted. Hoping to try and make connections and make it easier for others to do the same!

If there is enough interest I would be willing to host/run the server myself. I have experience doing so.

Anyone know where I can buy a paper copy of the NYT today? Need it as a gift for someone.

I am looking for professional dog sitters that do in-house dog sitting.

I am looking for recommendations as I will not be going through River or Wag due to terrible experiences.

I’m 74, live in Branson and would like to take my grandson who lives in eureka springs fishing. I’ve checked the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission and if I’m reading it correctly my only options are a 3 day nonresident permit for $30 or an annual permit for $60.

Does this sound correct?

Also where would you recommend close to eureka springs where we could fish from the bank or maybe a dock and he could get a few bites and maybe catch a fish or two. I’m thinking bluegill, sunfish, crappie but open for suggestions.

Has anyone else seen these over sized mosquitoes with white dots all over? Apparently they are called tiger mosquitoes. From what I read they are aggressive and invasive day pests that can carry various diseases!

VP at Arkansas Children’s who lives west of I-49 near the Springdale hospital complained about helicopter noise and forced them to change the flight route while those helicopters are transporting critically ill children. Apparently, it would scare their dog. A pilot at ACH said they were not even flying close enough to this person’s house for it to be that loud. That is the level of decision making here.

These are life saving transports where minutes matter and someone in leadership chose personal comfort over that. Similar story happening in Seattle where affluent neighbors who sit on the hospital's board are preventing helicopter landings at Seattle Childrens.

24F, NWA native, but i somehow missed the "hiking, church, kids" memo. i'm vegan, vote blue, and im living that DINK life. i spend my time outside work having a few drinks and shooting pool, playing tennis, doing embroidery/cross stitch, and watching TV (suits and house are my re-watches). i'd seriously love to find a tennis partner, pool partner, or someone to have a chill girls night/craft night in with. leave a comment or jump in my inbox if you'd be interested! :)

Im going to be back in nwa for more than a month for the first time in over 10 years and wont much money but would be amazed if any one is trying to get rid of something like and old bike or car that runs and is under 1k. Any offers or suggestions would be amazing!

I daily a 6 speed manual Mk 7.5 GTI and am wondering if there are any places in the surrounding area where one can take their car on the track for lessons or drifting for beginners?

Back in TX, my husband tracked his car and now that I have a few years experience with my manual, I’d like to learn how to drive with more control in a safe, controlled environment.
