Start your morning with movement, history, and a little self-care inspiration across the Riverbend.
At 9:20 AM, Alton Elite Jiu Jitsu joins the show to talk about upcoming classes, training options for all experience levels, and the strong culture of discipline, confidence, and community they’re building inside the academy. From first-timers stepping onto the mat to experienced competitors sharpening their skills, we’ll break down what sets Alton Elite Jiu Jitsu apart and why their approach goes beyond fitness to focus on personal growth and teamwork.
At 10:10 AM, Lacy McDonald returns with another edition of 100 Years Ago, taking us back through the headlines, stories, and everyday moments that shaped the Riverbend a century ago. It’s always a fascinating reminder of how our past connects to where we are today.
Then at 10:35 AM, we’re joined by True North Aesthetics Co. to preview their Galentine’s Experience happening February 7. We’ll talk about what attendees can expect, the focus on self-care and confidence, and why this event is a perfect way to celebrate friendship and wellness heading into February.
A well-rounded morning of strength, stories, and self-care to carry you through the day.
