I was born & raised on farm in N.E. Iowa. I graduated from Brown Radio Broadcasting in 1971. I've worked at WCCI in Savannah, IL, KCRG in Cedar Rapids, KDEC in Decorah and I'm now GM and part-owner of KVIK & KNEI. I'm also County Supervisor for Winneshiek County.

RHONDA GRITTON - 6AM TO 11AM

Hi! I was raised all over the country, Air Force brat, and proud of it! I went to High School in Colorado Springs where I met my husband. He is an Iowa boy and we ended up here! I have 2 children, Steven is 24; lives in the Twin Cities; Diana is 20; lives in Cedar Rapids.

My radio experience started at KGCI in Grundy Center back in the 80’s. I started out working the computer and eventually became the morning show personality. I was hooked.

We moved to Decorah in 1994, just as KVIK was getting ready to go on the air. I started out filling in for Patty in the mornings, hey, I use to do it for free!! Eventually, Les started letting me fill in for him and he gave me my own special time on Tuesday afternoon!

On March first of 2005 I was promoted to News Director. That was an exciting day!! So now I come in at 5:30 every morning and bring you news of the area along with a little state information. I also play music for you from 9 until 11 every morning. I enjoy spending our time together! Thanks for visiting our website. Let us hear from you!!

JANELLE HALVERSON - 11AM TO 2PM

I was born and raised in the Spring Grove, MN – but recently bought a house in Hesper-which means I am officially and Iowan. I grew up a BIG talker and it is just awesome to have a job where I can TALK for a living!

I have a beautiful daughter, who is my pride and joy. She is a super fun kid –who loves going with me to the races. We are both big dirt track fans and also like to catch NASCAR races whenever we’re home on the weekends! We spend a lot of time in the winter watching football – I got her started very early but haven’t been able to convince her she should be a Broncos fan (she cheers for the Steelers!).

I absolutely love my job and am so grateful to my “station family” for putting up with me. Listen in Monday through Friday from 11-2- call me with your request from the 70's and 80's. I love to get your e-mail and calls! Keep up the good work!
