May We Thank You 2023

May is all about thanking current and past service members on KQ98. Join us in saying THANKS to our Real American Heroes. A simple “thank you” will never be enough for all that they do to protect our country.

During the month of May we will be talking to special guests working with local veterans’ services that help them and their families. Listen to KQ98 to learn how you can thank and help our veterans in our local communities. 

Special thanks to Caledonia Haulers, Ace of La Crosse, River Valley Remodelers, April Carrier with Farmers Insurance, and Camp Site RV for their continued support of those who make the choice to protect our great nation.
