Matthew Lesko to speak

Matthew Lesko, probably better know as the “free money guy from TV,” will speak at Hagerstown Community College on Thursday, May 4, at 6:30 p.m. in the College Center. The event is free and open to the public. Lesko’s niche is showing everyday people how to get free services and products from the federal government.

In addition, Lesko is a former syndicated consumer columnist for Good Housekeeping, The New York Times Syndicate, and The Chicago Tribune. This will be his first appearance in Washington County.
