I had a chance to talk with 12-year-old Luke Bryant on today's Kent in the Country Morning Show!  This kid is a fisherman extraordinaire!  He may not wear skinny jeans like the country singer, Luke Bryan, but he sure can catch a catfish!  Luke is from Goreville and he caught and released this 9 1/2 pound channel cat at a pond in Johnson county!  Way to go Luke!  Hey if you've got a kid fishin' picture in your phone, send it to us at GONE FISHIN' with Harrison's Sport Shop in Hurst!  CLICK HERE!

 

It’s the Pledge of Allegiance Kid-of-the-Day!  Now parents, you can send in a video of your child doing to the pledge to our New Country Z100 Facebook page!  Please include their name, town, and where they go to school!  We’ll use the audio from your video message to share your kid’s pledge with everyone listening!

Today, we had the kindergarteners from Mrs. Severs' class at Christopher Elementary School lead us in the pledge of allegiance!  Tuesday, January 26th!

I had an opportunity to talk with Pastor Melissa McKinnies from Southern Illinois Worship Center on today's #KiTC Morning Show about something GOOD!  In my never-ending search to "Broadcast the Good", I'm always looking for cool things happening in the community!  This year, Easter is lookin' a little different.  No Easter Egg hunts with the kiddos. (Bummer) So, the folks at Southern Illinois Worship Center teamed up with Senator Dale Fowler and the Fowler-Bonan Foundation with local businesses to create an Easter "Goodie-Bag" with a coloring book, new crayons, free ice cream, and more!  These bags were distributed to the Harrisburg, Carterville, and Cairo school districts earlier this week.  There will also be a pick-up location at Southside Lumber in Herrin starting today through Saturday while supplies last.  (Only go out on an essential run) And, don't miss our Rise Above It Community Easter Service on the radio, and online, this Easter Sunday morning at 7AM!
