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%?

Children will be able to explore and interact with various city vehicles such as a dump truck, fire engine, backhoe, and even a train.

Sponsors supporting the event include FedEx Ground, Flight Fiber by Antietam Broadband, Hagerstown Community College, JLG Industries, Maryland Physicians Care, Xfinity, and Wellpoint.
In addition to the vehicle displays, the event will include family-focused activities such as music, face painting, balloons, and rides on the Tommy 202 tractor wagon train. Food vendors will be on site selling snacks and hot meals, and inside the Train Hub Museum, children can enjoy exhibits and shop for souvenirs.
