We can't seem to shake winter here in the Tri-State. Oddly enough, the first day of Spring on the calendar is this coming Monday. Bitterly cold temperatures tonight into tomorrow morning have determined a White Flag event.

You took the “Text-a-thon” Challenge and came through in a big way. The proceeds will benefit shelters in our community who need it the most. Thank you for all who gave so generously and supported the cause. We are ready to reveal the tote board!

Crossroads Women & Children's Homeless Shelter gives families the support that they need to get back on their feet during difficult times. This Friday, WBKR is teaming up with the Greater Owensboro Realtor Association and Kentucky Legend to help area shelters like Crossroads. Here's how you can play a part.

Due to dropping temperatures beginning this afternoon, the Daviess County Emergency Management Agency has issued a White Flag for tonight through Tuesday night.

Temperatures are supposed to be in the lower 20's over night with freezing wind chills. This calls for extra measures to keep everyone in our city out of the elements.

The Daniel Pitino Shelter will be hosting a block party on Friday, September 8, from 5-7 p.m. and they are inviting to whole community to attend!

The forecast for Tuesday and Wednesday  is predicting the wind chill to be below 15 degrees and very cold temperatures, along with snow.  This calls for extra measures to keep everyone in our city out of the elements.

WBKR visited The Daniel Pitino Shelter Tuesday, kicking off our "It's Time" community service campaign and I think I can speak for everyone when I say, we left feeling extremely blessed and thankful. We had the pleasure of serving lunch to 175 people and a much better understanding of what the Pitino Shelter really offers this community. Take a look as James and I discuss the shelter. Re
