Music Segment
Eargazm
This local band was formed in late 2004. They have an eclectic rock sound that has captured listener’s attention at live venues and left them wanting more.

Gene Stowe
Author
Gene has written a book entitled, "Inherit the Land: Jim Crow Meets Miss Maggie’s Will". This book took 13 years to develop and has been described as "a true story based on a novel". Taking place in North Carolina, circa 1920’s, this story changed a little southern community forever. It all started when a white woman willed her 800-acre homeplace to a black family and a white jury upheld the will, over the objection of more than 100 cousins, in 1921. It is a story that might just change your way to thinking.

Inge talked about where to go to see the fall leaves changing. Also known as leaf peeping, this event has a huge following around the Michiana area and beyond. A few places she mentioned that were good to see the leaves changing were Traverse City, Michigan and Madison, Wisconsin (if you’re up for a little road trip!)
