Cathy Kates

I have been working in the broadcasting industry in Northland radio for 16 years. My life has been an "open-book", sharing trials, tribulations and every day life experiences, because YOU are my friends. I have compassion for people and animals. That has lead me to be involved with many different non-profit agencies on a local and national level. I am a board member for the Northern Light's Foundation, an organization that grants money to families with children who have cancer or a catastrophic disease. For the past 13 years I have been on the Thanksgiving Day Buffet Committee, responsible for feeding over 3,000 needy families in the Northland, a full Thanksgiving meal at the local Convention Center. I don't limit my involvement to large non-profit organizations, I also attend the home-town meatball and spaghetti dinners and benefits. That's where my connection grows stronger with you on a face-to-face level, and we become family. I am also the Public Affairs Director for Townsquare Media, so if you have a benefit or non-profit event you would like on our Community Calendar, make sure to email me the information. Thanks for waking up with me every morning, I'm always here for you......always a phone call, or an email away.  Hugs!

What Jeans Fit You Best in the 70′s and 80′s, HASH, Jordache, Calvin Klein [VIDEO]

 

If you're around my age, you probably once wished for a pair of HASH jeans.  I begged my mother for TWO years, before I finally got a pair of dark brown HASH cords (corduroy). HASH jeans fit most people really well, they had bell bottoms, a double star design and the letters HASH stitched in gold on the back pocket.  Remember?  Did you own a pair?

Friday Lent Meal Idea: Taste of Home Tuna ‘n’ Pea Casserole

When my daughter Kylee was growing up, I remember having to come up with creative ideas for her Friday meals during Lent.  When I saw this Taste of Home recipe for Tuna 'n' Pea Casserole, I immediately thought, "I could serve THAT on Friday".  Kylee is 19 now so I don't cook Friday night meals for her much anymore, but if you're still looking for that meal that works for Fridays during Lent, try this one!

Do You Need a Dog License in the City of Duluth? Yes, and for Chickens, Bees and Whole Lot More!

After getting a new puppy, the question came up, do you need to register your pet with the City of Duluth?  After research, I found you do, and for bees and chickens, if you plan to keep them too!  Plus, if you want a dance hall or plan on running a coin operated device.  There's a license for just about everything you want to do or own and some of them left me scratching my head!

I Took My Driver’s Test in a HUGE Mercury Marquis, What Did You Take Yours In?

Huge, doesn't properly discribe the vehicle I had to take my driver's ed test in.  More like humugi-mammoth!  Parallel park?  It was like docking the Vista Queen in the Duluth Harbor wearing blinders like those of the  horses that pull the carriages in Canal Park.  Here's a video that will give you a walk-around view of a Mercury Marquis.
