Tell us about your community involvement.

We promote charitable events all year long, but most recently we had a 12 hour online auction/radiothon to raise money for the local food pantry.

This year, as in past years, we were live at Blain’s Farm and Fleet in Janesville for 12 hours collecting toys, cash and non-perishable food items for the Salvation Army.

Tell us about any involvement you have, or coverage you provide, to any agriculture related groups.

We air a locally produced show that deals with the Agriculture Community called Ag Matters.  It’s a half hour long program that covers various issues and events.  The show has won awards from the Wisconsin Broadcasting Association.
