The New Railyard Bike Park |
Contributes to NWA’s Transformation into a Cycling Destination
A cyclist tests the new Railyard Bike Park in Downtown Rogers
T
here’s nothing like it anywhere else in
Arkansas. The new, dirt jump bike park in
Downtown Rogers, funded in part by The
Walton Family Foundation and connected
to the Lake Atalanta trail system, opens with a Grand
Opening and Ribbon Cutting on November 7. The
bike park will be yet another piece of the puzzle in
furthering Northwest Arkansas’ transformation into
a cycling destination. Located only blocks from the
Arkansas-Missouri railroad, the park is called “The Rail-
yard” and features wall rides, whale tales and concrete
lips. The park is designed to accommodate riders of all
different skill-levels and different types of bicycles. It
will be open day and night; the city is also installing
lighting and building a pavilion and parking lot.

Progressive Trail Design (PTD), a Fayettevillebased company was contracted to build the park.
“A park like this is a game changer for the community,” said Nathan Woodruff, founder and owner of
PTD. His brother, Clayton Woodruff, also of PTD,
added, “We tried to create a full scale bike park
here for all users, all progressions, from beginners to experts. It serves everything from striders,
to full suspension bikes, to dirt jumpers, to BMX.
Probably the biggest, most signature piece here is
a full-scale rail car that you ride through - it will be
on real railroad tracks.”
The new bike park is expected to draw people
from outside the region, especially for the types of
events that can be held at the venue. But it will also
provide an opportunity for play for local residents.
The Railyard is a great place for kids and teenagers
to hang out, doing something healthy outdoors
while also offering an adventure and exercise for
adults. “Trails and bike infrastructure like this new
bike park in Rogers are important not only to our
quality of life, but also for economic development
in the region,” said Misty Murphy, Regional Trails
Coordinator at the Northwest Arkansas Council.
The Grand Opening is November 7 at 10:00
a.m. and will be attended by Mayor Hines and
other city dignitaries. Andrea Brinton, Director of
the Parks Department for the City of Rogers, told
the Chamber Voice there will be demo riders, food
trucks, short trails rides and other fun activities to
celebrate the opening.

2015 Fall Job Fair Attracts Over
700 Job Seekers in Rogers
T
he Northwest Arkansas Job Fairs (held
Spring and Fall in Rogers) are the
largest and longest running annual
job fairs in Arkansas.The 2015 Northwest Arkansas Fall Job Fair on October 7 was
presented by WorkSource NTS and Glad Manufacturing and hosted by the Rogers-Lowell Area
Chamber of Commerce at the Frisco Station Mall
in Rogers. This year’s fall event attracted over
700 job seekers and featured 53 employers.
Steve Cox, Vice-President of Economic
Development, said the 700 attendees nearly
doubled the number from the spring event
and that the new location at Frisco Station Mall
on Walnut St. in Rogers was well received by
both job seekers and employers. “This was a
nice central location for the job fair, complete
with a bus stop out front for easy access,” he
said. “The Arkansas Department of Workforce
Services also has an office in the mall, so many
job seekers were already familiar with the site,”
he added.
The annual spring and fall job fairs are free
and open to job seekers who are encouraged
to bring their resumes to hand out to prospective employers exhibiting at the fair. At the job
fairs, job seekers are able to meet one-on-one
with local Human Resource professionals at the
Job Seekers’ Resource Room staffed with local
human resources professionals and representatives from local organizations that know
what it takes to get the right job. “When you
look around and see all the help wanted signs,
you know that companies are hiring. Our goal
was to help connect people who need jobs to
these opportunities,” said Cox.

What is the Small Business Council? |
Call for 2016 Applications
T
he Small Business Council (SBC) of the
Rogers-Lowell Area Chamber of Commerce was formed in 2005. It is made
up of volunteers who either own their
own business or work for small businesses in the
area. The purpose of the Small Business Council
(SBC) is to be the voice of the small business
community and provide guidance to Chamber
staff on the needs of the small business community within Northwest Arkansas. The SBC’s
mission statement is: Promoting sustainable
growth for small business through awareness,
diversity, and education.
The twenty member council meets on the
first Thursday of each month to talk about the
needs of the small business community, nominate and select a small business of the month
and small business of the year, develop business
education programming for Chamber University,
and discuss and help implement small business
programs for the Chamber. Members also help
facilitate and run the bi-monthly Member Orien-
tations held at the Chamber offices. This gives
the SBC opportunities to get to know new members and help share the vision of the Chamber.
Those wishing to serve on the SBC must
complete an application and be approved by a
combination of Chamber staff and the executive
committee of the SBC. The term of service starts
in January 2016 and goes through December. If
you are interested in learning more about the
SBC or would like to serve contact Steve Cox at
[email protected] for an application.
“Promoting sustainable growth for small business
through awareness, diversity, and education.”

50 to 80 people who register to attend each quarterly
event. That’s a lot of speed networking! To get the
most out of your networking, bring brochures, business cards, product samples and promotional items
to hand out and display at your tables.
Ticket prices include meal, featured speaker pre-
sentation, round-robin speed networking, company
marketing and a chance to win great door prizes.

$30 for non-members. Registration at the door on the

Chamber Partners with
Rogers Public Schools
T
he latest regional Employer Retention and Expansion surveys show that
over 54 percent of area businesses are
experiencing workforce recruitment
problems. This is affecting businesses of all shapes
and sizes across nearly every industry sector in
Northwest Arkansas. In response, The RogersLowell Area Chamber of Commerce has committed to helping address this important issue and is
pleased to announce a new partnership with the
Rogers Public Schools (RPS) | Career & Technical
Education (CTE) Programs. These programs are
designed to get students trained in career-ready
fields and help area businesses find and hire productive employees.
CTE programs provide students both knowledge and performance skills in a wide range of
career fields. Middle School students (6-8th grade)
participate in foundational courses such as Career
Development, Keyboarding, Consumer Science
Investigations and Computer Applications; as well
as exploratory courses such as Web Page Design,
and Broadcasting.
CTE programs of study offered on high school
campuses provide students opportunities to
gain career readiness and technical skills in more
specialized areas, including Business, Marketing, Manufacturing, Machine Tools, Automotive
Technology, and Family & Consumer Sciences.
High School students (11-12th grade) also have
opportunities to attend courses offered through
the Secondary Career Centers, including Certified
Nurse’s Assistant, Criminal Justice, Culinary Arts,
and Diesel Mechanics.
The goal of Career and Technical Education
is to prepare students for both college and career.
Through participation in CTE programs of study,
students gain both knowledge and technical skills
that will help prepare them for college and/or a
career following high school graduation.
The Chamber will be sharing more information with members about the Career & Technical
program, including partnerships with local business and industry, concurrent credit programs,
and industry certifications in upcoming issues.
