Hi! I’m Kelly! I have been part of the team since 2008 and have had a lot of fun in that time. Prior to that, I worked for a small town radio station and had a just for fun college radio show with friends. I’m a Faribault High School grad and hold a bachelors degree from the University of Minnesota Morris. When I’m not working, I love spending time with family and friends, walking my dog, checking out great local events, spending time outdoors, cheering for the Twins, and taking in as much live music as I can. Thanks for listening!

On Sunday, the sun was shining, there was a nice breeze, and I opted to take advantage of the good weather and take a stroll at one of my favorite places in Faribault, the River Bend Nature Center.
Big Hats Were Big Fun at Paradise
This Saturday, May 6, was the 143rd year of the Kentucky Derby and the eighth annual Big Hats Big Hearts Kentucky Derby party and fundraiser to support the Paradise Center for the Arts in downtown Faribault. It was a great success and a lot of fun!
Kelly’s Kentucky Derby Picks
This Saturday, May 6, is the 143rd Kentucky Derby. Many people will be places bets based on the horses' past performance, trainer, the jockey, and a multitude of other factors. While all of that is certainly important, there are people far more skilled at determining the rankings than I could ever hope to be, so instead, I'll rank the horses based on name alone.
The Guacamole Recipe You Need
May 5 is upon us and that means Cinco De Mayo. The holiday marks the Battle of Puebla in 1862 when the Mexican army had a victory over the French army. While considered to be a somewhat minor holiday and celebration in Mexico, the date has grown very popular in the United States. And for many, that means enjoying a delicious meal.

Pet of the Week: Marley
Each week I’ll share a picture and a little bit about a pet that is available for adoption and waiting to find a good home.

Check out this week’s Pet of the Week and then check back next week to see a new furry friend looking for a fur-ever home.

It’s Music Monday! Each week I share something I am listening to and think that you might also enjoy.
