Dan Wilson - President

Dan Wilson

President

I’m Dan Wilson and I'm glad to have served on the KAMB Board for about 14 years, presently as President. I think the station serves a vital communication role in our community, connecting people and ministries and facilitating reconciliation to God by continually pointing to Jesus Christ 24 hour a day.

I’ve just recently retired from teaching and about 20 years ago from the USAF. I have been married to Marilyn for 44 years and have two grown children and five grandchildren. We attend Yosemite Church in Merced.
Tami Lange - Vice President

Tami Lange

Vice President

Hi, I'm Tami Lange and I am the KAMB Board Vice President.

I live in Merced with my husband, Pastor Jonathan Lange of St. Paul Lutheran Church, and our five children whose ages range from 17 down to 10.

I'm a busy mother, Pastor’s wife and school board member.

I believe in Christian radio and want to see KAMB strengthened. I have a background in marketing and I consider serving on the KAMB Board to be a good opportunity to help KAMB grow.
Steve Slocum - Secretary

Steve Slocum

Secretary

Hi, I'm Steve Slocum, the KAMB Board secretary. I am an attorney and I work as a prosecutor for the Merced County District Attorney's Office. I attend First Baptist Church in Merced along with my wife, Katie, and our four children.

I knew about Christ at a young age but it was when I entered law school that I began to really follow the Lord more closely. I believe God has been calling me to be more involved in church and I want to serve others in order that they may come to personally know the saving grace of Jesus.
Carla Travaille - Treasurer

Carla Travaille Carla

Treasurer

Hi, my name is Carla Travaille and I am the KAMB Board treasurer.

I live in Ripon with my husband Sam. I have three grown daughters and one granddaughter. I work full time for the Postal Service as a Rural Letter Carrier in Escalon. I have been a faithful listener and supporter of Celebration Radio for over 20 years.

Christian radio has had a profound impact on myself and my family over the years. Being a Board member is a great opportunity to serve the community and the Lord. My prayer is that KAMB will continue to bring hope and the knowledge of Jesus Christ to a world that so desperately needs it.

Daniel Finn

Hi! My name is Dan Finn and I am a KAMB Board member. I have had the privilege of being associated with the KAMB Board since 1998. My first encounter with KAMB was back in 1971 when I first moved to the Turlock area.

I have seen KAMB evolve over the years from tape recorders to the present digital computers. Our one theme has always been to broadcast hope and encouragement through Christ centered messages and music.

I have spent the past 34 years working in a family business manufacturing agricultural equipment. My lovely wife, Carol, of 40 years has been my constant encourager. We worship at Monte Vista Chapel in Turlock.
Mike Boster -

We have three Children and attend Monte Vista Chapel in Turlock. I work for a local welding supply company as an account manager.

Our prayer as a board is that KAMB will inspire people to know Jesus personally and challenge them to follow Him faithfully. (Our mission statement)
