95.3 WCFX is an FM radio station broadcasting at 6,000 watts in Clare, Michigan. The station primarily serves Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, the home of Central Michigan University, with a CHR/Top 40 format as "Today's Best Music, 95-3 CFX."

What is now WCFX was originally WCRM-FM, co-owned with the now-defunct WCRM-AM 990 (the calls stood for Crossroads of Michigan, referring to the station's being located near the geographic center of the state). It became WRNN-FM on November 6, 1979 and eventually WCFX on November 15, 1980. WCFX stood for "Foxy 95" through the 1980s.

In August 2003, Grenax Broadcasting purchased the property for $2.875 million. Previous to that, the station had been owned by Jackson Radio Works, owners of WKHM and WIBM radio in Jackson, Michigan.
