Show Notes

In this week's episode, Editor Gary Castor chats with members of the 2025 Leadership Jefferson City class, specifically Alyssa Wilds, John Smith, and Ashley Wiskirchen.

They discuss the 10th annual "Battle of the Brews" fundraiser, scheduled for August 23rd, from noon to 4 PM, at the county fairgrounds. This event offers beer tasting from local and regional brewers, live music, food trucks, games like axe throwing, and a Steinholding contest. All proceeds from the fundraiser benefit two key beneficiaries: the Salvation Army's Center of Hope, which is renovating a family shelter, and Capital Projects, which provides dignified employment for adults with disabilities.
