8/27/23 CVTW: Hope Gospel Mission Celebrates 25 Years!

                                                                         Chippewa Valley This Week

                


As Hope Gospel Mission celebrates 25 years we begin the look back with Founder, Mark Donnelly, who says he first starting thinking about starting a rescue mission in 1993, though it took five more years for it to become official and until 2000 before the downtown Eau Claire men's shelter actually opened. Part one of our discussion includes the opening of Hope Bargain Center in 2003 and the opening of the Ruth House, a shelter for single women, in 2005.

8/24/23 Football: DC Everest 24, Chi-Hi 14

On the road for the first time this season, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (1-1, 0-0 Big Rivers Conference) fell behind early against the Evergreens (2-0, 0-0 Valley Football Association), but took full advantage of an errant pass to tie the game at seven.

Late in the second quarter, DC Everest punched in a go-ahead score, but gave momentum right back to the Cards after the half with yet another interception, this one returned for a touchdown to tie the game at 14. After that turnover, however, the home team dominated time of possession and pulled away for the non-conference victory.


WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Senior DB Jack Zwiefelhofer played a whale of a game, recording two interceptions, the first leading to the only Chi-Hi points of the first half, and the second a pick six.

8/20/23 CVTW: "Mom and Dad's Nipple Factory" Makes Eau Claire Premiere

                                                                        Chippewa Valley This Week

                


                           
Eau Claire native Justinsuperstar(Johnson) tells the love story of his parents, Brian and Randi Johnson of Eau Claire, in his very personal documentary, "Mom and Dad's Nipple Factory," making its Eau Claire premiere, Aug. 29th at 6:30pm at the Pable Center. When Randi is diagnosed with breast cancer, her husband Brian, an introverted serial entrepreneur and tinkerer, embarks on a journey to restore her that is anything but ordinary. Following her successful mastectomy of one breast and later, an innovative breast reconstruction process, Brian realizes the love of his life is still feeling incomplete. Learning from everyone he can inside their small Wisconsin town and beyond, starting with the local dentist, he launches a project to build her the perfect matching nipple - a project that neither of them realizes has the power to change thousands of lives.

8/17/23 Football: Chi-Hi 17, Holmen 14

Home at Dorais Field to begin their 2023 campaign, the Chippewa Falls Cardinals (1-0, 0-0 Big Rivers Conference) took full advantage of two first half turnovers to stake a 14-0 lead against the Vikings (0-1, 0-0 Mississippi Valley Conference), a fellow playoff team from last year.

In the second half, an early fumble and points left on the field stymied the Chi-Hi momentum, but the defense, which played strong throughout, held their ground at the finish to seal the victory.


WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Junior RB Jackson LeMay found the end zone twice on this opening night, once through the air and once on the ground, and made splash plays throughout the game. Fellow junior Jackson Bohland showed off his athleticism as a receiver and also provided a spark in the return game for the Cards.

                                                                      Chippewa Valley This Week

                


                           
Wisconsin Railroad Commissoner, Don Vruwink, joins us to discuss railroad safety. He says Wisconsin has more than 42-hundred public RR crossings and another 2-thousand private RR crossings. Vruwink says an incident occurs at a WI RR crossing every three hours. He says there have been three RR-related WI fatalities since he took over March 20th. With high-speed rail expanding in WI he believes in more important than ever to call attention to railroad safety.
