Hope to you see at the Rock ALS Fest in Sheldon on Sat. the 26th!
It's about raising money for "Hop On A Cure" an ALS charity created by John Driskell Hopkins of the Zac Brown band, who was diagnosed in Dec. 2021 & continues to tour while fighting ALS!

Hop On A Cure has given more than $5 million in grants & support to those fighting ALS over the last 4 years. Get more info about the show at rockals.org. And yesterday...this happened :)

INDYCAR update: Despite a last ditch effort, they were unable to dry the track in the window they needed. The Milwaukee Mile does not have lights so they had to resume before sundown which is generally around 7:20-7:30pm. The race will resume at 8am tomorrow. We will let you know of any coverage plans as that does conflict with our Sunday Morning Church Service programming.

We are still planning to bring you coverage of the second race from the Milwaukee Mile tomorrow starting at 11:30am.
