To register for the prize, many listeners send letters and e-mails through-out the month of June telling about a special vacation they had taken. Many listeners also sent us a picture from their vacation, which we have posted on our studio wall. Thanks to everyone who registered to win the Grand Prize. Thanks, also, for listening to KGRD and for all you've done to keep this radio ministry on-the-air for the past 21 years!

On April 27, 2008, a familiar voice returned to KGRD. Gene Henes is back on the air at KGRD after he spent about a year and a half as editor of the Creighton News. Besides working at KGRD, he also keeps very busy as the Operations Manager of KMMJ. KMMJ is programmed from KGRD's building in O'Neill and is a mainly talk format found at 750 AM.

 

Stephanie, Michele and Gene are holding the three May baskets we gave away on May 1st. Each basket contained Sara Groves' latest compact disc and well as a daily devotional book by Henry and Richard Blackaby -- and of course CANDY! The three winners were Jerlyn from Tyndall, Elizabeth from Clearwater and Dwan from Avon. Thanks to everyone for calling to win. It was great to hear from you!
