Cole and Ricky, very sorry to hear this. I hate that something like this could tarnish such an awesome weekend.
I was born in Hot Springs and lived there for 18 straight years. My parents still live in Hot Springs. Hot Springs as a whole is a wonderful place to live, work, and play. Unfortunately, the area surrounding Superlift is the sketchiest part of town. Mill Creek Road is home to some of the shadiest characters the Spa Town has to offer. The area from Malvern and Grand Ave. down to Magic Springs is just not a great place to be. Please keep in mind this is not the norm for all of Hot Springs. Unfortunately, a few bad apples can always ruin the bunch.
