Thursday's Morning Show

Dr. Mark Newton, who is the chief of ER at Doctors Hospital, will be with us at 6:10 and 7:40 to talk about swine flu. We're seeing more cases of it locally in McDuffie and Aiken counties, so Dr. Newton will address some of the concerns and questions about it.

Thursday is the official end (the 88th day) of 88.3 WAFJ's 88 Days of Summer. We're giving away a GIANT stack of CD's, so listen at 7:10 to find out how to win.

Swine Flu Information
