Four decades and one name change later, Blue Ridge Public Radio (formerly WCQS) is turning 45, and we want to celebrate with you!
Head to Outsider Brewing on Thursday, August 29 for a special birthday edition of News & Brews. We’ll enjoy good drinks, casual conversation and (best of all) the first 50 attendees will receive a complimentary BPR pint glass.
