Staying safe & making connections at summer events

On today's show...

We turn the mic over to a voice you may have heard before during an emergency. Amanda Johnson is the state 911 training coordinator and a former rural dispatcher.

She discusses one of the most important and invisible jobs in South Dakota.

The Sioux Falls Police Department joins us to talk about safety ahead of a full calendar of summer events. Chief Jon Thum and Assistant Chief Nick Cook are with us.

Dorothy Rosby says the state's new grads have a bright future ahead — and blubbering relatives behind them. She shares her humorous essay in honor of graduation season.

The Clover Fold launches their first studio album. Vocalist Erin Castle takes us behind the tracks.

Plus, SDPB's Jackie Hendry previews Thursday's Child Care Crisis Town Hall. We talk about questions, responses and solutions.
