Babs Smith

Challenge Coins & Apple Blossoms

March 25, 2025

Kevin Osgood and John Craemer from the USCG Auxiliary join the show to promote boating safety courses. It's that time of year again, and Kevin and John say that about 80% of people on the water have not taken a safety course. We're hoping to help change that. You can click HERE to see the upcoming dates for courses in Northeast Wisconsin. John and Kevin also presented Challenge Coins to Jim, John, and Todd. It was an amazing honor. Then another amazing friend stops by: Babs Smith. Her organization is planting another 50 apple blossom trees in with the Apple Blossom tree planting event at the Apple Creek Trail at Cherryvale Avenue in Appleton. It's coming up on Thursday, May 8th, at 10 am. Babs also released her latest book: Day Tripping Kayak Wisconsin Waters of Green Bay West Shore: Green Bay to Garden Peninsula Upper Michigan.
