Due to Covid-19 precautions, the Maumelle Parks and Recreation Department is not having its annual Daddy/Daughter and Mother/Son Dances this year, but they’ve got a plan.

And that plan, with the Maumelle Youth Council and approved by the Arkansas Department of Health, is a “Sweethearts Photo Booth” this Saturday, Feb. 6.

Register online at maumelleparksandrec.recdesk.com or in person at the Jess Odom Community Center to participate. The cost is $20 per family. 

When you get to the Center, you will have your photo taken against an “awesome” Valentine backdrop.

All registrants will receive a goody bag of coupons and treats from area businesses including The Dreamy Spoon, Chick-fil-A and Sonic. So a sweet treat after the photo session is the next step in the plan.

Time slots start at noon and run through 4 p.m. 

Edited photos will be emailed to participants after the event. For more information, call 501-851-6990.
