Jan. 11, 2016 - PRLog -- NY/NJ/PA --  Neversink Media Group station owners Bud and Juli Williamson are very excited to announce the appointment of Kerri Manning Freeo as Station Manager of Pocono 96.7 and 97.3 FM. "Kerri is very respected in the community and this is a natural transition in our minds. Kerri had strong marketing and management skills when she joined us 2 1/2 years ago. Her ability to learn all facets of our industry and how to use our tools to get the results for the local businesses in the Poconos is second to none. She has demonstrated a passion for all of the special things we do on Pocono 96.7, whether it's a live 'Gary In the Morning' appearance at a local business or working with Christina in serving an important and growing part of our community, the Latin Community."

Pocono 96.7 launched in April 2012, and Kerri joined the sales team in September of 2013, working as an Account Executive/Copywriter, handling the advertising and marketing needs for many local community businesses. Kerri also services accounts for 107.7 WDLC and 106.9 WYNY, and is a crew member for Pocono 96.7's Tu Voz con Christina Show in the Poconos, which airs Sunday mornings from 8-10 am.

Kerri is a 23-year resident of the Pocono Community and has 10 years of Marketing and Advertising experience. She has been previously employed with Kmart, Proctor and Gamble, and Time Media Group, working in marketing and merchandising areas.

Another rewarding aspect of Kerri's life is her charitable work, which is close to her heart. She has over 14 years of experience in volunteering in our community, serving as the Awards Chair for the Cub Scout Pack 100, a Board Member and Treasurer for the Bushkill Youth Organization, and presently holds the position of Program Manager for the Monroe County Special Olympics Pennsylvania. Under Kerri's Management, Monroe County Special Olympics was awarded Program of the Year in 2014 and was recently awarded the 2015 Volunteer of the Year Award for Monroe and Pike County by State Representative Rosemary Brown this past November.

"Today I begin an exciting journey ... as new Station Manager of Pocono 96.7 97.3 WABT. I am both honored and very excited to have been selected, and I look forward to helping find ways that Pocono 96.7 can better serve the needs of our community. I am ready to move to the next level of excellence in providing opportunities to participate in programming that will be continually tailored to meet the needs of our diverse community. I want to help the station become what it wants to be and what the community needs it to be — Local Community Radio," says Kerri Manning Freeo.
