EVENTS

Thanks to our volunteers, program hosts and community members who came out for the KZSM Sock Hop, July 19, 2025! It was a fun night, and almost $4000 was raised to keep community radio alive in San Marcos. John Michael and the Retro Cats kept the dance floor full with their Rockabilly sound.

This would not have happened without all the work, diligence on the details, and creative flair of Songbird Sheri Swartz!

And a big Thank You to our local businesses and friends who donated! The businesses are featured on our home page.
