WGRC Christian Radio

Larry Weidman, Founder and General Manager

Larry's vision for a contemporary Christian radio station in Central Pennsylvania grew out of his interest in radio as a young person and coming to understand how radio is an effective tool in communicating the Christian way of life. Larry is married to Janet who is the co-founder of WGRC, and they are the parents of three, and grandparents of four. Larry and Janet live in Lewisburg. Larry, in addition to being the general manager, hosts the morning show and is the primary host of the award-winning WGRC talk-show, "The Matter At Hand". Larry brings a unique perspective to radio having been raised on a dairy farm near Millville and spending fourteen years in the dairy and food processing industry. Larry's radio career began in 1966 at WPGM in Danville. He is a 1976 graduate of the University of South Carolina and worked as a news and public affairs director at WMHK in Columbia, South Carolina for four years, before returning to Central PA in 1980.
