Our Daily Show! Ft. Home Builders Remodelers, Deck the Town, US Army Corps of Engineers and More!

Join CJ Nasello this Thursday Morning in the Heart of the 618 for another great two hours of conversation. We’ll start the day with Shannon from the Home Builder's Remodelers of the Metro East Association. She’ll share all the details about the Wish Home Open House on Tuesday, December 12th, in Troy, IL. The event features a stunning $500,000 home raffle benefiting Make-A-Wish. Raffle tickets are $100, with a chance to win a brand-new golf cart and other exciting prizes. During the Open House, enjoy cookies, photos with Santa, and meet local Wish Kids and their families.

Then, learn all about Deck the Town! Local businesses are decking out their storefronts for Christmas ahead of the 30th Annual Downtown Christmas Tree Lighting this Friday. Tune in for all the details on this creative way to celebrate the season and support the downtown community. Finally, Elise Ratcliff will join us to talk about the fourth annual “Winter on the River” Photography Contest, held in partnership with Meeting of the Rivers Foundation. They are looking for artists to capture the beauty of winter along the river for this community photo contest, which will be exhibited at the museum beginning January 11, 2025. The exhibit will remain on display through the end of the winter season.
