The 814 Update

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm Tara and she's Rachel. We may not have done a newscast for awhile, but I'm sure we'll be back on the air soon, in one way or the other. And we've got some shows of our own in the works in the Johnstown/Ebensburg area. If you own a bar and want to have bands in but don't want to be responsible for paying them yourself, drop me a line. Cheers!
