Hunt County United Way executive director Frances Dalbey says the organization is hoping to organize a program to provide children with breakfast and lunch over the summer months when schools are closed.  The program would be an extension of a weekend program now offered by FISH (Hunt County Shared Ministries). Frances also discusses "Power of the Purse," a fund raising luncheon Thursday, April 9 in Greenville.

John Mark Dempsey is the host of the public interest program The Blacklands Café from KETR News. Dempsey is also the play-by-play announcer for Commerce Tigers Football on 88.9 FM and on ketr.org.
