Did you know? Paid supporters get a reduced ad experience!

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!
Sharon Lehner has joined the Chamber as Administrative Assistant, bringing more than two decades of professional administrative experience. Her expertise is expected to play a crucial role in supporting the Chamber’s daily operations. Also new to the organization is Katie Younkins, who will serve in the Member Services role. Younkins was previously the Director of Engagement at United Way of Washington County, a position that has provided her with a strong foundation in community engagement and nonprofit service.
The staffing update also includes the promotion of Maddie Monica to the role of Marketing and Events. In her new position, Monica will be responsible for managing the Chamber’s marketing efforts as well as organizing its annual signature events. This move comes as the organization aims to strengthen its visibility and deepen engagement with its members and the broader community.

While other outlets focus on getting quotes from politicians who don't even live in our congressional district, we're focused on providing the hard-hitting truths and facts without political spin.

But if you're not, that's fine too—we're confident in our mission and will be here if you decide you're ready for the truth. Just $5/month helps fund our local reporting, live election night coverage, and more.
