We're celebrating a HUGE milestone ➜ 200 episodes of Gaston's Great!

For 200 episodes, we've had the privilege of sharing the incredible stories of the people, businesses, and organizations that make Gaston County such a special place to call home.

This week, we're switching things up! We're turning the tables on our host, Steven Long, and taking a trip down memory lane to discover how Gaston's Great first began, reflect on the amazing people we've met along the way, and talk about what's next for Gaston's Great!

But that's not all! We reached out to some familiar faces from past episodes and asked them one simple question: "In one sentence, what makes Gaston County great?" ❤️

Their heartfelt responses remind us why we started this journey in the first place, to celebrate the people and stories that make our community truly one of a kind.

To every guest, listener, viewer, and supporter who has been part of these 200 episodes .. THANK YOU! We couldn't have reached this milestone without you!
