Bruce Gartman

Greetings to the Big Country 99 Nation, My name is Bruce Gartman. I'm originally from the Flat Lands of Northeastern Arkansas and hold a Marketing Degree from Arkansas State University. Most of my professional life, I've been involved in the automotive industry either at the wholesale or retail level. I understand the importance of the right promotions and advertising mix to make your business grow. I have three sons, two of which are serving in the US Army, one a junior in high school and two daughters that are in college in Springfield Mo. My wife teaches at the Middle School in Mountain Grove. I enjoy golf, the beautiful Bull Shoals and Norfork Lakes, and officiating High School sports. I look forward to helping Big Country 99 patrons reach their goals and be successful.

I graduated from Mountain Grove in 2005 and I am currently attending the University of Missouri majoring in Communications. I absolutely love Mizzou and everything about it (GO TIGERS!), but I am looking forward to graduating in December. I am really undecided on what I want to do after graduation, but I do know I would like to continue my education and go to grad school. In May, I married the most wonderful man in the world, Channce Neuroth. I love spending time with Channce and the rest of my family; especially my two adorable nieces, Arieanna and Sophie, and my handsome little nephew, Elijah. I love to hunt with Channce and I'm hoping to get my first deer in the fall. I am really excited to be interning here at Big Country and I am enjoying every minute of it!

Some people call me spiffy, so you can call me whatever you prefer. I am an intern at Big Country 99, and I have had no previous experience with the field of radio broadcasting. I am 15 years old and will be a sophomore in the 2007-2008 school year at Houston High School. I moved to Houston in July of 2006 from Northeastern Illinois. Some of my hobbies include, singing, theater, church, and volunteer. I am a member of the HHS Drama/Debate squad, the HHS choir, and the Houston Chamber of Commerce. I have been given so many opportunities here in Houston and I can definitely call Houston my "true home." I am extremely excited about this intern position at the station, and can't wait to learn many new things!!! Thank You Big Country 99 Staff!!!

If you have any questions for me please feel free to e-mail me at Brett@BigCountry99.com.

I’m a hometown girl, my family has farmed in this area for four generations. This is my home, with my husband Shane and daughter Alexis. We have a farm of our own, in partnership with my parents and brother. We have Simmental cattle and Missouri Fox Trotting horses. I enjoy singing country and gospel music and am a former Miss Texas County. I released a CD single in Europe, New Zealand, and Texas, which received extensive play. I am very proud of my family, my hometown and my heritage in agriculture and want to help others in this area as I have been helped.
