Symons to leave KSTK FM

Sentinel writer

Mike Symons, the general manager of KSTK FM, has resigned his position as head of the station citing a wish to return to California.

His position with the station will end on Tuesday, May 14.

Symons was hired in 2012 and his 10-month tenure was marked by a consistent goal of reaching pledge levels in the bi-annual fundraising drive the station takes part in each year.

Before volunteering at KSTK and being promoted to GM, Symons held down volunteer stints at KFSK in Petersburg and KTOO FM in Juneau.

Symons is a native of Wisconsin and has lived in Alaska since 2003.

The KSTK Board of Directors will hold a meeting this month, though no word on the search for the next GM has been released by press time.
