Tanner Sheldon, aka "Turtle Boi", is 14-years-old from Harrisburg, IL, and is a master scuba diver.  He is also extremely passionate about keeping Southern Illinois beautiful!  He regularly spends days picking up bags of trash from the country roads throughout Saline County.  I had a chance to talk with Tanner on this morning's Kent in the Country Morning Show,  and he was able to showcase his "Earth Day Challenge" for 2022.  Starting April 1st, and running through May 1st, take a picture with a sack of trash that you've picked up, share it with the hastag, #turtleboi, and you could win some pretty cool prizes!  CLICK HERE for the Turtle Boi official facebook page for more details!  Here's the interview from today's show, Tanner will tell ya' more!

I had an opportunity to talk with Dr. Mathew Winkleman with SIH on today's #KiTC Morning Show.  Here at New Country Z100 and River Radio Group, we are doing our best to present facts, not fear.  1st thing is this, don't go out unless you absolutely have to.  Now is the time where social distancing is more important than ever!

SIH has set up a 24-hour COVID-19 hotline.  1-844-988-7800.
