We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free. It takes time, effort, and resources to keep you informed and entertained. Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.
If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.
Will you be one of the 5%?
Thank you for supporting Radio Free Hub City!
The event will feature the Clover Kids Race, One Mile Run/Walk, 5K Run, and 8K Run, offering seasoned runners and casual participants opportunities to join in the fun. Registration and festival activities will be based at Hub City Brewery, located at 25 W Church Street, Downtown Hagerstown. The downtown area will come alive with festive energy as participants don costumes and St. Patrick’s Day attire to celebrate the occasion.
After the races, the Downtown Hagerstown Main Street program will host a performance by Poor Man’s Gambit, a traditional Irish band from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The group will play at Hub City Brewery from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, creating an inviting Irish ambiance for attendees. The celebration will continue at Baile Bagels and Brews, a new American-Irish pub located at 53 W Washington Street, just steps from the Cultural Trail.
