This morning, Everett Buick GMC announced a $500,000 investment in Benton Parks & Recreation's "Fields for Our Future" project — funding new turf infields for all five softball fields at Riverside Park!
The gift is part of Everett's "See Her Greatness" initiative, created to give female athletes more visibility and more opportunities to play on fields that reflect their hard work and talent.
"It's for the community, and the Mayor sold us 100 percent," said Susie Everett.

This morning, Saline County celebrated a significant milestone in regional trail development with the ribbon cutting ceremony for Segment S8A — the first completed portion of the Southwest Trail within our county. This approximately 2.5-mile segment now connects directly to Pulaski County's existing Segment P1, creating 6.5 continuous miles of trail between the two counties and advancing the vision of a 65-mile corridor linking Central High School in Little Rock to Bathhouse Row in Hot Springs.
This achievement reflects years of planning, partnership, and investment in the future of our communities. We extend our sincere gratitude to county officials, community partners, and all who attended this morning's celebration, and we look forward to the continued progress of this transformational regional project across Saline, Pulaski, and Garland counties.
