We at O-N Radio would like to extend our sincerest congratulations and "see you later" to our friend Joe Callahan. If you haven't yet heard, Friday October 23rd will be Joe's last day with O-N Radio as a full-timer. 

 

Over the past eight years Joe has worked as the station's customer delivery specialist, selling advertising to local businesses, in addition to being an on-air moderator for Coffee An', hosting the Tiki Bar, and hosting our afternoon request oldies show. 

 

Joe is a long time friend to ON Radio and although he has to leave us for now, we are so excited for what is in store for him and thankful for all he has done for us.
