Pledge of Allegiance “Kid-of-the-Day”! Sydney Mausey

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!

Something really cool is happening THIS FRIDAY NIGHT (4-3-2020) from the Marion Cultural and Civic Center Facebook page! Marion United is a charitable organization formed to help the local business community in the Marion area. Jared Gravatt and Josh Benitone from Crown Brew Coffee Company will be hosting a LIVE telethon style event, to raise funds for members of the Marion business community affected by COVID-19. Here's something from their official website...

"A CITY UNITED

In the midst of the COVID-19 Pandemic, our city has found itself in an unprecedented economic crisis threatening the livelihood and future of so many locally owned businesses. In a time where so many are struggling, there is an amazing opportunity for the citizens, churches, businesses, and organizations to UNITE and help them through this. MARION UNITED is a collaborative effort to generate grants for local businesses affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic.

We need your help! Even a little bit can make a big difference! Despite great pain and tragedy, there is an opportunity to unite and endure this struggle together. If we do, our city will shine as a beacon of hope in the midst of economic disaster. When we look back on COVID-19, we will be remembered for how we came together with a solution to lift our community during a time of uncertainty. Now is our time to shine!"

Join them in the efforts with Marion United! Check out the facebook LIVE event THIS FRIDAY! And if you want to help, check out WWW.MARION-UNITED.COM for merchandise, and ways to donate!
