GoodWorks Day of Service on Saturday, Sep 12!
Join hundreds of neighbors across Northwest Arkansas for a morning of hands-on volunteering.

The Plan: Projects run mid-morning, with options for all ages. Families and first-time volunteers welcome. No experience needed, just a willingness to pitch in.
Who It Helps: We're building a culture of volunteerism in NWA with neighbors showing up for neighbors. Pick a project, bring your crew, and spend a Saturday morning making a real difference right in your own backyard.

Travel
XNA Retains Record-Number of Regional Flyers
A new study shows that 80% of regional travelers now choose XNA instead of driving to airports in Tulsa, Kansas City, or Dallas.
XNA Marks the Spot: That’s up from just 61% of regional flyers in 2017. The growth comes as XNA now offers 27 nonstop routes, plus low-cost options from Frontier, Allegiant, and Breeze.
Plane Awesome: Keeping travelers local also benefits Northwest Arkansas through XNA’s economic impact and job creation. The airport contributes around $463M to the local economy each year and supports more than 5,800 jobs.

9th Annual Duck Race To Swim Through Springdale

Duck, Duck, Go: Expect a family-friendly morning filled with a 5,000-rubber duck race down Spring Creek at Turnbow Park, plus face painting, cheerleaders, and more.
Make a Splash: The event supports the Springdale Public Schools Education Foundation’s grants program. Purchase a duck and earmark it for a specific Springdale teacher or school. If your duck finishes in the top 10, that classroom wins a $1,000 grant to spend on materials or a project of their choosing.
