WGN Radio Live Broadcast

The radio home of the Chicago Blackhawks will be broadcasting live from the Libertyville Civic Center this Friday morning. 'GN morning guy Greg Jarrett will be broadcasting his show live 5a-9a. Of course - the radio geek that I am will make sure to catch at least part of the show - you should too!

WGN choosing to broadcast from Libertyville is another example of how we've become a premiere destination in the suburbs. Plus - the fact most of the broadcast appears to be centered around our restaurants really speaks volumes for what a great reputation Libertyville has for a dinning destination.

Here's the information from the WGN-AM website: (It looks like there will be a lot of food! If I would have picked the line-up, I would have left out the Liberty and included the Townee Square or Wildberry)
