On-Air Host (Weekday-Morning/Afternoon) MELISSA SHRIVER-HACKAMACK
Melissa Shriver-Hackamack is the voice taking you through the middays throughout your week. You could say Melissa is “homegrown,” growing up on a farm near Ursa.
You might recognize Melissa’s voice on-air. She’s spent most of her career as a television news reporter and anchor at KHQA-TV. A few years ago, she stepped away from that job to enable her to be at her children’s school, 4-H and sporting events. Melissa is an avid volunteer and serves on many boards across the Tri-States. She is a director for the Adams County Fair, as well as a member of the 4-H Foundation.
Melissa married her high school sweetheart Adam and is a thankful mother of three children – Brinley, Brooklynn and Blake. Melissa and family attend the Quincy Church of Christ. When she isn’t on the radio waves, you’ll probably find her teaching children’s Bible classes (a passion of hers), gardening or swimming when it isn’t freezing cold.
You can still find her toting buckets and gardening around her hobby farm. She graduated from Unity High School and holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Communications from Truman State University in Kirksville, MO.
She encourages you to hold tight to GOD’s promises no matter what comes your way.
HIS way is the BEST way.
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
Ephesians 6:16
On-Air Host (Afternoons-Evenings/Mon-Fri) Dusty (“DC”) Carlisle

DC married his wife, Katie, in March of 2025. They attend Madison Park Christian Church in Quincy and love volunteering in many ways there. They love spending time going on walks with their three dogs, enjoying a night out to eat at one of their favorite local restaurants and watching plenty of documentaries at home.
Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this this is the duty of all mankind.
Ecclesiastes 12:13
On-Air Host (Sat. Afternoons) KAYLEE MCFARLAND
Kaylee was born and raised in Texas, but her roots run deep in the Tri-State area, where much of her family resides in Quincy and the surrounding communities. A proud alumna of Texas State University, she earned her bachelor’s degree in Communications/Electronic Media in 2011. She spent eight years in broadcast journalism, most recently serving the
Quincy area as a reporter at WGEM-TV.
Today, Kaylee serves as a Trust Officer in the Trust Department at Mercantile Bank, where she helps individuals and families manage their assets, plan for the future, and build lasting legacies. In addition to her role in banking, Kaylee is also a radio host on WGCA, where she shares uplifting messages and spreads God’s word across the airwaves. Whether through her professional work or her time on the radio, Kaylee is passionate about making a positive impact in her community.
Outside of work, Kaylee enjoys traveling, seeing live music, and most importantly—spending time with her husband, Joe, their daughter, Kirby, and their two dogs, Muffin and Biscuit.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

On-Air Host (Overnights) Kevin Bradford
Kevin is a native of The Hawkeye State. He was born and raised in Des Moines, Iowa. He attended Des Moines East High School while working in the projection booth at the local movie theater and earning his pilot certificate. Kevin finished his aviation education and began serving with various praise and worship bands in Dubuque, Iowa while attending the University of Dubuque. After graduation, he became a flight instructor and taught aviation at his alma mater for 8 years. Even after more than 20 years of flying airplanes, he still enjoys taking to the skies and enjoying a unique perspective of God's creation. When Kevin is not on the radio with WGCA, he is working as a professional pilot for a local business.
It was in Dubuque that he met his wife, Anna. Together, they have 2 busy boys, Noah and Zachary. They have called Quincy, IL “home” since 2016. They currently attend Madison Park Christian Church where they are actively involved in the music ministry. When they are not making music at church, they are usually listening to music at home, playing games, reading books, watching a rocket launch, or anxiously awaiting their next chance to take in live music at a concert.
The Bradford family encourages you to remember Romans 12:12. While God may not always answer our prayers in a way that we expect, he does answer them. Patience, hope, and prayer show that we trust God in all situations we face in life.
And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

On-Air Host LOGAN KAMMERER
Logan Kammerer is locally grown here in Quincy Illinois. A graduate of Quincy Senior High School where he met his wife Mackenzie while sitting across from her at the lunch table, never envisioning the life they would have together. After a life now more together than apart, they have four beautiful children, Aria, Everly, Hugo, and Lyra.
Since the age of fifteen, he has worked many positions but the one that rings true and stands strong is music. He has worked as a musician in the surrounding playing locally every week in a variety of settings. When he’s not working or gigging he and his family love spending time bike riding, reading, enjoying the outdoors, family game and movie nights, but most importantly painting and listening to vinyl records in their art room. “We spend a substantial amount of time practicing and expanding our abilities in art and music, we LOVE it.”
He and his family attend Madison Park Christian Church where he occasionally plays with the worship band. They are involved in group life and sharing the wonderful word of God.
They work to live by the Golden Rule, striving to teach their children the importance of kindness, empathy, and perspective.

ON-AIR HOST (WEEKDAY OVERNIGHTS) SHAWNA BUNNELL
Shawna grew up on a farm in Hancock County surrounded by a loving family and church community. Her love of worship music started early, with countless childhood memories standing next to the piano bench (when she was barely able to reach the keys!) as her mom practiced and played.
Other than God, and her family, Shawna’s greatest passion is Chaddock where she has worked for 11 years. She loves her kids and her job and tells everyone she can about God’s work being done through their ministry. She answered the call to preach in 2019, officially becoming a Pastor of the United Methodist Church through the St Paul School of Theology. Today, she travels across the region sharing
Biblically-based and Chaddock-inspired messages. “I am so blessed. God created the perfect job for me. I get to preach every weekend, and still remain with my Chaddock kids and family. I could not ask for more, and yet, He gave me the opportunity to serve at The Mix, as well. My prayer is to be a blessing and I am grateful for all the ways God allows me to be that.”
When she is not working you will find Shawna spending time with her family, praying with her prayer group, shopping, watching football, or listening to her favorite podcast, and always enjoying her favorite peach melba water…It’s so good!
And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

Chief Engineer Michael DeLaRosa
Michael (not Mike, please). I am originally from Chicago, but I have called this area my home since 1999 (and an actual Quincy resident for 3 of those years). One of my favorite activities is to attend the Blues In The District concerts at Washington Park. There is nothing like a warm summer breeze, the sun setting at your back, and live music in front of you.
I LOVE radio. I always have. That is why you might hear me broadcasting on other stations in the area. I also work for WGCA as their Chief Engineer. My duties on WGCA include maintaining and repairing equipment, and keeping 88.5 The Mix! on the air. As long as you are able to listen to WGCA on the radio, then I have done my job.
IT/Digital Media Manager Russ Smith
Russ has been the IT Manager at WGCA since 2007 and added the responsibilities of our digital media in 2012. He wears a lot of hats around here: computer and network support, website development, graphic art, social media, and the mobile app! If it has something to do with our computers, he’s had his hand in it. He’s even coordinated two of our outdoor music events (2007 Battle of the Bands and MixFest 2013). He's more in the background nowadays, but his love for WGCA is as strong as ever!
He has been happily married to his wife Kimberly since 1992. They are blessed with three children and are proud grandparents to a growing group of little ones. In addition to his work with WGCA he is also employed at Knapheide Manufacturing with their IT Department.

He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
