The Amy Schulz Child Advocacy Center, often referred to as The Amy Center, is partnering with eight Southern Illinois small businesses to host the “Sweet Treat Saturday” fundraising event on August 3^rd. The local ice cream shoppes throughout The Amy Center coverage area teaming up to donate money to the child advocacy center while inviting people to enjoy a cool, sweet treat are Dairy Mart in Salem, Yellin’ Helen’s in Dix, Fat Dad’s in Louisville, Hometown Swirls in McLeansboro, C-Town Twist in Centralia, Scoops in Belle Rive, Dairy King in Breese, and the newly opened Twisted Twins in Woodlawn. People are encouraged to support these local eateries, and by doing so, will be helping to raise funds for The Amy Center.

The Amy Schulz Child Advocacy Center serves seven Southern Illinois counties by providing a first responding safe place for child victims of sexual and severe physical abuse, neglect, as well as children who have witnessed trauma such as a domestic violence situation.

We had some connections issues as the boys of Parmalee are on the road out east but thankfully we muddled through it and got some great stuff. Parmalee is the most played group/band on Country Radio in 2023. Five #1 singles, multi-platinum selling records, and over 1 billion streams online… and coming to Nashville – Illinois- on July 9th to the Washington county fair. Get your tickets at thewashingtoncountyfair.com and we'll see you in NashVegas this summer! Thanks again to Barry Knox, Josh McSwain, Matt Thomas, and Scott Thomas for the time this morning!

Angela & McKenzie stop by the show to discuss the MASSIVE amount of events taking place in downtown Mt. Vernon and the surrounding Jefferson County area this weekend.
