Join radio Cumulus Radio stations, 955 GLO, 1057 The X Rocks, 973 Nash FM & Peoria’s 923 WZPW with a chance to get up close with one of the visiting Budweiser Clydesdales during Hitch Against Hunger,  November 23, from 10am- 5pm on site at Brewers, 2421 W Townline Rd, Peoria.  Hitch Against Hunger will give people the opportunity to have a photo taken with a Clydesdale in exchange for a canned food donation, to be given to Sophia’s Kitchen.
