Kids Programs
Conway Regional Health & Fitness Center offers various programs and services to encourage your children to be active and have fun!
Kids Run Arkansas®
Kids Run Arkansas® 2025, presented by Conway Regional Health & Fitness Center and proudly sponsored by Groovy Smiles Pediatric Dentistry, was a celebration of fun, fitness, and family!
Children of all ages—and their parents—laced up their sneakers and hit the trail, with no chip timing, just pure energy and excitement. This year featured two awesome events: the classic 3-mile run/walk and Reggie’s Rush, a brand-new ½-mile race designed for our youngest runners. Tucker Creek Trail set the perfect backdrop for a night filled with movement and smiles.
Beyond the fun, Kids Run Arkansas® made a real impact by supporting local schools. Thanks to outstanding participation and the help of our generous sponsors, we awarded scholarships to support PE programs across the community. Over the past 16 years, we’ve proudly contributed nearly $80,000 to local schools—and we’re not done yet! Here are this year's top five schools:
St. Joseph | 1st Place | $3,080
Woodrow Cummins | 2nd Place | $2,615
Jim Stone | 3rd Place | $1,900
Conway Christian | 4th Place | $1,190
Theodore Jones | 5th Place | $715
Thanks to everyone who made this year's event unforgettable—see you next year!
