The 12-hour live broadcast took place on Friday, June 20, 2025, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Beasley Media Group Event Center. The station’s airstaff, led by Matt Cord, Kristen Herrmann, and Tony Harris, encouraged listeners throughout the day to donate in support of the heroes who have bravely served our country.
