Jake Linder sits down with Mt. Vernon Fire Chief & EMA Coordinator Kevin Sargent this week to discuss severe weather season safety and preparation, summer tips, and of course his retirement. Thank you to Kevin for being a great friend and asset to the radio stations over the years. Sargent has always been accessible during severe storm coverage, water crisis, safety tips, and with any information any time he was called upon by those at Withers Broadcasting Companies. We can't thank him enough for his service and wish him rest as well as relaxation in his retirement.
