Start your Tuesday morning with local service, remembrance, and community tradition.

At 9:20 AM, Margaret Hopkins joins us to share details on Wreaths Across America, a powerful initiative honoring veterans by placing wreaths on their graves during the holiday season. We’ll talk about the mission behind the program, how it connects families and volunteers to those who served, and how listeners in the Riverbend can sponsor a wreath, volunteer, or help spread the word. It’s a beautiful way to remember, honor, and teach the next generation about sacrifice and service.

Through the morning, we’ll keep you up to date with your daily dose of local news, events, and community stories from around Alton and the Riverbend.

Then at 10:35 AM, we’re joined by Alton 4th Ward Alderwoman Rosie Brown to talk about Socks for Tots, now in its 10th year and growing. Rosie will share how this simple but powerful drive is expanding, who it helps, and how you can donate and get involved. From warm socks to big smiles, it’s another great example of neighbors taking care of neighbors.
