The Nebraska Rural Radio Association (NRRA) has named Kathy Armagost as market manager for its three Lexington stations: KRVN AM, 93.1 The River, and KAMI.
Armagost brings more than 25 years of experience with the company to her new role. She began her career in Lexington as a sales representative, later serving as sales manager.
“I’m honored to step into this role and lead such a dedicated team here in Lexington,” Armagost said. “KRVN has always stood as the Voice of Agriculture, and I’m committed to building on that legacy by working together, communicating openly, and keeping our listeners at the heart of everything we do.”
NRRA Chief Executive Officer Tim Marshall said Armagost’s long history with the organization and passion for its mission made her the ideal candidate.
“I’m excited to welcome Kathy into this leadership role,” Marshall said. “Her experience, energy, and passion for serving others make her a great fit to guide our Lexington stations. I’m confident she will help us strengthen our mission and continue delivering the trusted information our listeners rely on every day.”
The Nebraska Rural Radio Association is the only radio group in the nation which is owned by a cooperative of farmers and ranchers. Along with flagship studios in Lexington, other markets include Scottsbluff, West Point, Broken Bow, Holdrege and York. In addition to the radio stations, the NRRA has production studios on the Nebraska Innovation Campus in Lincoln.
The NRRA-owned Rural Radio Network reaches seven states across the Midwest.
