The Faulkner County Circle of Friends chapter, a group of individuals working to raise funds and awareness for Arkansas Children’s Hospital, will host its Seventh Annual Freezin’ for a Reason 5K and 10K and Lap for Life on Saturday, Feb. 1.

The event will be held at John McConnell Stadium at Conway High School. 

The race was initiated by the chapter as a way to honor the memories of Charlotte and Stella Mulhearn, two Conway children who received treatment at Arkansas Children’s Hospital.
