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!

The Herrin House of Hope has seen a dramatic increase in the amount of meals served each week due to the Covid-19 pandemic.  Last week, it was an approximate 400% increase in meals served to members of the Southern Illinois community.  If you can help out in any way, financially, or even with volunteering if you are healthy, you can find out how to do that at the Herrin House of Hope website!  Located on S. 14th Street, the Herrin House of Hope serves meals Monday through Saturday from 11AM to 1PM!  In case you missed it, I was able to speak with Pastor Troy Benitone with Community of Faith Church.  He helps organize the incredible volunteer effort that takes place there every day!
