It's time once again for the Zion United Church of Christ Chicken N' Dumplings Dinner!  Carry-out ONLY this year!  What could be better on a Friday than a big bowl of Chicken N' Dumplings!?  Call the church at (618) 997-5190 to pre-order.  Still just $10 a plate for Chicken N' Dumplins, green beans, slaw, rolls, and a dessert!  I had an opportunity to talk with Pastor John Holst from the church to talk about this year's event!

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!
