Mission statement

KLKS founder Allen Gray

K-Lakes aims to please folks 35 and up. We do that by offering a full-service format featuring music, news, weather and lots of local information.

The music

Our music is popular since 1950. The Artists range from Frank Sinatra to Barbara Streisand... Hurricane Smith to Dave Gruisin.

CNN and local news

The News is CNN, the folks who define global communications. Our Local News features events of importance to all our Brainerd Lakes-Area neighbors.

Weather reports

Maybe the best thing we do is keep an eye on the skies. K-Lakes features live regularly scheduled reports from licensed meteorologists several times a day, and immediate updates when necessary. Satellite providers give us an up to the moment bird's-eye-view on the weather worldwide.

Listen for live reports from Chief Meteorologist Tony Schumacher and his staff 365 days a year.
