We are thrilled to share that X101 Always Classic (WXHC 101.5 FM) was recognized on Wednesday, September 30th, by the New York State Broadcasters Association (NYSBA) with the prestigious Serving New York Award. Our team received the honor during a regional awards luncheon held at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Syracuse Destiny USA.
This annual recognition celebrates local radio and television stations across New York State that demonstrate exceptional commitment to community service and public programming.
The award comes on the heels of our broadcast of the 36th annual Rotary Radio Day on Saturday, September 26th. Put on by the Rotary Club of Cortland with support from the Cortland Breakfast Rotary Club, this yearly tradition turns our airwaves over to local community leaders and non-profits to highlight vital civic services across Central New York while raising funds for regional philanthropic projects.
Throughout the day-long broadcast, we featured representatives from area organizations, youth exchange programs, cultural institutions, and local initiatives. The business sponsorships and donations raised during Rotary Radio Day directly fund Rotary projects across Cortland County—including youth leadership grants, literacy drives, and community enhancement projects.
If you missed the live event or want to hear your favorite segments again, the full day’s broadcast can be listened to anytime on our website at wxhc.com under “Rotary Radio Day.”
We are deeply grateful to the NYSBA for this honor, as well as to the Cortland Rotary clubs and our incredible listeners across Central New York. Our partnership with local service organizations underscores our commitment to keeping our community informed, connected, and supported every single day.
