PEGGY IS NO LONGER PATROLLING FOR THE CREW - COULD YOU BE OUR NEXT PATROLLER?

Peggy from Peggy on Patrol is leaving Michigan. (We've asked her to turn out the lights as she leaves the state) In honor of her tremendous efforts at eliciting fun and unusual responses from area residents about various topics, Mike & Jon gave her a special award and a hearty good luck.

However, that leaves us with a need for someone to become our new patroller. Could that be you? Are you outgoing? Can you get people to open up and say what's really on their minds? Do you want to be on the radio? Are you willing to work for free? Then we'd like to hear from you. E-mail us if you're interested; I Want To Be The Crew's Next Patroller
