Meet your WCSG News Team

WCSG News exists to share timely headlines and meaningful stories that impact the lives of our listeners, offering them with an unbiased approach that reflects our values and mission.

Heather Beckham

Heather helps listeners kick of the day by serving as WCSG’s morning news anchor. Originally from Mississippi, Heather and her husband moved to the Midwest over a decade ago and now consider this area home. When Heather isn’t busy reporting the latest news or homeschooling her three kids, you can find her tending to her vegetable garden, reading, or spending time with friends.

Kevin Richards

Kevin Richards provides regular traffic reports in the mornings and afternoons on WCSG. A veteran in radio, Kevin’s been delivering information to West Michigan for more than 40 years. He and his wife, Amy, raised their four children in southeast Grand Rapids, and he cherishes every moment he gets with his grandsons. When he’s not in the studio, Kevin enjoys time with his family, bicycling, gardening, reading, and taking walks with Felice, his Lhasa Apso.

Rose Blackwell

Rose is the voice behind WCSG’s news during the drive home. A Grand Rapids native, Rose enjoys life and she never hesitates to seize the day. Her favorite pastimes include reading, yoga, DJing, cooking, listening to music, and exploring nature. Fun facts: she has a twin sister and is fluent in Spanish!
