CONWAY — They say it takes a community to make a community center, and that has never been more evident than with the Conway Parks and Recreation Department’s pending move to the Kennett Middle School.

It started when town and school officials came together to agree to a long-term lease, and it continues as demostrated by the work Saturday of 17 members of the White Mountains Moose Lodge 2705 who rolled up their collective sleeves and spent the day painting 15,000 square feet of the new facility for free.
