Here's your local news at a glance for Monday, the 21st of April.
Good morning, Springdale.
A truck driver from Florida was woken up by thunder and heavy rain Saturday while sleeping at a Springdale gas station near West Sunset Avenue — his truck rocked with wind, water, and flying debris until he waited for the storm to break before returning to the road.
Many cyclists are riding local trails this spring as free parks like Runway Bike Park in Springdale offer pump tracks, skill courses and bike playgrounds for all ages.
Cycling fans say the trend supports health and wellness — a boost for local living.
A new online list ranks restaurants in over 50 categories across Northwest Arkansas, and it features Springdale’s top 10 picks among other city rankings.
The list (which does not allow paid placements) focuses on food quality and service (rather than marketing budgets).
