On The River

Trainings are available for new on-air volunteers on June 3, 2025, at KAXE in Grand Rapids, and June 4, 2025, at KBXE in Bemidji.

In 2025, KAXE will have even more live, locally hosted programs including "Headwaters," our staff-hosted morning music program with great music curated by people, not algorithms.

Each Monday morning, KAXE brings you "Bright Spot," uplifting stories of Northern Minnesota, to foster a sense of community and connection through storytelling. This week, KAXE volunteer DJ Ironsides from Bemidji talked with Heidi Holtan about his quest on his hand cycle bike.
