Reese WION has a Birthday party every year at Bertha Brock Park just a little west of Ionia. Lots of listeners and engineers attend. It's free and from what I hear a fantastic time.

Why isn't this in the Political Forum? It has nothing to do with Grand Rapids.

Rush was on the air in Grand Rapids for many years, and Reese is following-up on an earlier post from GR section.

I can't believe there is anyone that would want to listen to Christmas music this early in the year.

I know, it's frustrating that other people like different things!

... Just 10 years ago, Thanksgiving seemed like a barrier...

It started in 2001. People were still reeling after the 9/11 attacks, so many AC stations adopted the "because we need a little Christmas now" mentality.
