The 3rd annual Halloween Golf Cart Parade is Saturday, October 29 at 11 AM in Downtown Conway.  Gather your family, friends and neighbors for a fun morning!  The Halloween Golf Cart Parade will begin at the Conway Public Safety Building on 9th Avenue, then continues down 9th Avenue to Laurel Street and follows Laurel Street into Downtown Conway ending at Elm Street.  Awards will be presented.  Spectators are invited to view the parade along the route, but are reminded to please be mindful of private property. 

Registration closes Wednesday, October 26. The 2022 event has both competitive and non-competitve categories.  Competitive-We started planning for this right after last year's parade and this will be our year to bring home the prize!  Non-competitive-We put some streamers and balloons on the golf cart and pulled out some old Halloween costumes.  It is free to register for the parade; however, participants must register in advance so Conway Alive can appropriately prepare for the event.
