Former Mayor Edmunds Remembers WHOW

Saturday at the Big Red Barn was a celebration of 70 years of WHOW being on the air. 
 
In a live interview, former Clinton Mayor and current Council member, Tom Edmunds, remembered the days when morning interviews started to become popular and recalls long time news director, Bill Ward and the longevity he had at WHOW.
 
 
Edmunds credits WHOW for being a resource for information in times of emergency. Now the station serves as an emergency radio station for the power plant, but he points to many years ago when radio station personnel would arrive via snowmobile.
 
 
WHOW is also linked to the National Weather Service, so any time a watch or warning is issued in DeWitt County, or any of the surrounding areas, WHOW broadcasts live emergency alert notifications.
