WKAR’s Jeanie Croope bids adieu

WKAR File Photo

We’re taking a moment today to bid adieu to a member of our WKAR family that many of you have come to know and love over the years. 

Jeanie Croope has been one of our TV hosts for years during broadcast specials and fundraisers.  She's also WKAR's communications manager, and she's retiring after 32 years of service.

WKAR has closed the gap left by the loss of federal funding. Because of you, trusted journalism, inspiring stories, and classical music remain freely available to everyone in mid-Michigan.
Now the work continues — your monthly gift helps maintain this success and keeps public media free for all.
