Salvation Army executive takes "a closer look" at Rice Lake area non-profits

Duana Bremer

The June Producer of the Month is a volunteer with Rice Lake Community Media. Duana Bremer is the Executive Director of the Salvation Army for St. Croix, Burnett, and Polk Counties in Northwest Wisconsin.

Bremer started doing her show, “A Closer Look”, after she approached Rice Lake Community Media Executive Director James Wyngaard with the idea of hosting a show featuring non-profits from around the area.  Wyngaard said, “Duana asked if I would be interested in doing a show about non-profits in and around Rice Lake.

I said that would be a great idea for a show, however, since I’m already doing 8 to 10 studio shows depending on the month, how about you host?” Bremer is now responsible for scheduling guests for the show and setting up the recording dates. Bremer said, “James is easy to work with. He’s always making the guests and myself feel comfortable in the studio. It’s always great to hear his speech about the different ways people can watch and use our show on their own social media platforms or other ways to promote their organizations.”

Bremer started her show in November 2021 and has featured groups from the Aging and Disability Resource Center, to Birth to 3, and other groups from across Barron County.
