EMAIL: alancraig@bicoastalmedia.com
He loves dogs, Ducks, golf, Hold’Em, Sudoku, politics, Harleys and most of all Kirsten, his wife of 21 years. He’s also proud of the fact that he has never checked the "No Opinion" box in his life. Having fun in the morning without being silly for the past 12 years, Alan Craig and The Early Morning Update will start your day right weekday mornings 5:30-9:00.
Diana brings the news to the breakfast table each morning on the KPNW Early Morning Update. She has been in Eugene radio for more than ten years now and many listeners feel she is a friendly and accessible news source for local and national issues. Diana has a degree in Journalism-Communications from the University of Florida along with many years of vocal and performing training. Diana would rather learn than teach and she wants to hear from you.
Contact Diana with local issues and events of concern to you, and she will dig around and get some answers on the air. Diana says that's the challenge of journalism, to empower your listeners in their daily lives. You will find her Weekend Events feature each Friday at kpnw.com under Local Events. It's a community events page and your submissions go there.
Lee Chabre is the program director for KPNW, when he is not bungee jumping from some bridge. He also enjoys bowling and beating the computers to death because they have once again failed.

EMAIL: dlhatch@comcast.net
Duane was reared on a farm in Arizona and has been gardening in Oregon for more than 30 years, and in Utah for another 10 or so. He planted the Hatch Patch demonstration garden near the round Wheeler Pavilion at the Lane County Fairgrouns for 14 years through 2005. It was a way of showing a wise use of garden space and the versatility of seasonal changes from vegetables to flowers and back.
