On the Road with Big Blue will be making another stop this weekend. The WNZR crew will be in Fredericktown this Saturday, July 24 for the annual Christmas in July. This was one of the many events we missed last year and it is extra special this year because we originally did not think that we could make it due to conflicts with the Knox County Fair. Fortunately, everything worked out and we are excited to join Fredericktown on Saturday for this great event!
To learn more about what is happening at Christmas in July, we talked with Bill Van Nostrand about it. Bill shared lots of great information about what activities will be going on, what deals people can find at local businesses, and how money raised during the event will be used. You can hear the entire conversation with Bill HERE.
We’re looking forward to seeing you in Fredericktown this Saturday from 10 to noon at Christmas in July! Be sure to check wnzr.fm regularly to see where Big Blue will be next!
