How long have you been listening to Goin' Across The Mountain? Do you support it and WNCW? If so, THANKS! If not, why not? Your bluegrass flagship has been running the tracks for nearly 36 years and a big reason for that is listeners LIKE YOU.
Our Fall on-air fund drive is on today and I'm asking our bluegrass family to step up, as you've done in the past, and maybe even more so to WNCW and the programming you like going strong!
