As temperatures are dropping and coronavirus infection numbers are rising, the Conway Ministry Center opens its warming center Dec. 16.
The center, opening at the Don Owen Sports Complex on the north side of Conway, will provide beds, as well as meals, hygiene including showers, and support for those needing to come in out of the cold. It will remain open through February, operating from 6 p.m. to 8 a.m. seven nights a week.
The center has a capacity of roughly 75. The number fluctuates based upon how many families arrive with children, Ministry Center Executive Director Spring Hunter said.
Hunter, busily putting final touches on the space the final day before opening, said the center provides segmented areas for men, women and families. Last year the center was able to support 233 people including 17 families and 23 children, she said.
