hometown hero

Fun 107's 2016 Heath Hometown Hero Award recipient was announced this morning on the Rock and Fox Show.

We are so excited to announce this year's George Heath Hometown Hero nominees.

"I'm choked up hearing this news," said Heath's widow Rosemary.  "It's such a nice gesture," she told the Rock and Fox Show. Her husband, George Heath, heroically confronted a man who was actively stabbing their pregnant waitress at Bertucci's Restaurant in the Silver City Galleria...

You live here, you work here and you are raising your families here. Do you know someone who is your Hometown Hero?

Fun 107 and Townsquare Media New Bedford/Fall River, along with Wareham Crossing, Pride Collision Center, First Citizens Federal Credit Union, Pasta House, and Care Free Homes are looking for a Hometown Hero. We asked for you to send us your nominations for who you think is most worthy of winning the title of the Southcoast’s 2015 Hometown Hero and now it's time to vote.

Do you know someone who has made a significant impact here in the Southcoast community?

The results are in and we have this year's Hometown Hero!

Libraries Now - A Day in the Life from Well Exposed on Vimeo. How appreciative are you to have a library or several libraries in your city or town?

So I know that all of you know about our great "Hometown Hero" annual contest, which helps recognize some of the great people or "heroes" we have, living among us, on the South Coast.

Fun 107 is looking for Hometown Heroes, so I took the opportunity to explore the Southcoast a bit and meet some of these heroes myself!
