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.

The town invested $392,200.80 in Fiscal Year 2025 and $136,225.00 in Fiscal Year 2026—drawing entirely from Maryland Highway User Funds—to tackle sections long plagued by potholes and erosion. This $528,425.80 effort represents part of nearly $1 million directed toward roadway and walking‐trail improvements since 2022, ensuring that Smithsburg’s infrastructure keeps pace with community needs.
Crews from Huntzberry Brothers carried out the bulk of the work on ten segments, including East Hemlock Street, Stanley/Hauver Drive, Douglas Court and others. While the major paving and overlay tasks are finished, the contractor remains on site to wrap up cleanup and final details. These upgrades will reduce vehicle wear, enhance pedestrian safety and bolster overall walkability throughout town.
