WKAR Sustainer Barbara Richardson

WKAR Sustainer Barbara Richardson is the happy winner of the TV GetAway GiveAway to the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island.   

The prize package includes a two-night stay at the Grand Hotel, where she can enjoy the hotel's old-world hospitality and charm, including formal meals in the main dining room and spectacular views of the Straits of Mackinac from the world's longest porch. 

Barbara Richardson of Lansing has been supporting WKAR since 1978.  She's deciding whether to visit Mackinac Island herself, or gift her amazing stay at the Grand Hotel to a dear family member! The TV GiveAway was part of a recent fundraising campaign that raised over $54,000 in support of quality television for mid-Michigan.
 

Every WKAR News story you read is rooted in fact-based, local journalism, produced without commercial influence and available for free to everyone in mid-Michigan. No paywalls. Ever.

But this work doesn’t fund itself. With significant cuts to federal funding, public media is facing a critical moment. If you believe in journalism that serves the public interest, now is the time to act. Donate today.
