It's a family reunion! 

As WWIB Radio celebrates 50 years, we want ALL of our WWIB family - past and present - to join us for a BIG party, Saturday, August 26th at Riverfront Park in Chippewa Falls! 

Even if you’ve never tuned in before, the whole community is invited, so bring your friends and neighbors for this FAMILY FUN DAY!

We're talking SEVEN food trucks (listed below), FREE inflatables, yard games, giveaways, vendors, face painting, and Kevin's Juggling and Balloons!

Make sure you're there for our giant family reunion drone photo! 

Then enjoy a musical reunion with 513FREE!

If you've been blessed by the radio ministry of WWIB over the last half century, we would LOVE to see you Saturday, August 26th from 4-8pm at Riverfront Park in Chippewa Falls!

Other than the food trucks, every part of this event will be free of charge - we just want to celebrate with our friends and neighbors and give families one last hurrah before school starts!
