New 'Rock Island Lines' during LeClaire Week Oct. 19-26

WVIK will be part of a special week of celebration in LeClaire, Iowa. We have teamed up with tourism officials to help promote the river town Oct. 19-26. WVIK's one and only Roald Tweet will be producing five new live "Rock Island Lines" at 11 a.m. each weekday that week. The three-minute shows will be rebroadcast each night at 6:30.

Dr. Tweet, professor emeritus of English at Augustana College, has spent much of his life traveling up and down the river, talking to people, reading their journals and enjoying the humor and history of the region. His observations about life around Rock Island strike responsive chords. It's a viewpoint that will enrich and enliven your life, so be sure to tune in during the third week of October to learn all about eClaire's rich history.

Also... don't forget to visit all the cool shops, cafes and restaurants in LeClaire.
