Norm Hall – signing off for the last time
By Chuck Hunt - Editor | May 30, 2021
Long-time KBEW news director Norm Hall is set to retire on May 31 after 30 years on the air.
After 30 years of bringing the residents of the Blue Earth area the news on KBEW radio, Norm Hall is hanging up his headphones, turning off his mic, and retiring. His last day is May 31.
“I started here at KBEW in October of 1991, so my 30th anniversary was this past October,” Hall explains. “I was hired by Roy Haven, the station manager at that time.”
Hall’s path to becoming the news director at KBEW took a very circuitous route.

BLUE EARTH, Minn. (KEYC) - Blue Earth Middle School students committed to a day of service in the community Thursday.
Last year, the students weren’t able to serve because of the pandemic, but were excited to get out and give their time and effort to Blue Earth this year.
“It feels really great,” service day coordinator Sara Albright said. “This is one of my favorite days of the year. It really gives the students a chance to shine and take a little ownership. It just feels good to help the people around us.”
