As the digital managing editor for Townsquare Media, Bozeman, I get to work with the awesome folks at our local radio stations: 100.7 XL Country, 95.1 The Moose, 96.7 KISS FM, 1450 KMMS AM and MY 103.5. You've likely seen me hiking or running on one of Bozeman's many trails, sipping an IPA at a brewery or maybe I've made you look at pictures of my son, my dog or possibly even my cat (like when she got stuck in a tree and I had to call the Bozeman Fire Department). I enjoy writing about what's happening in Bozeman, my parenting adventures and interesting things that I learn about this great place we call home. I'm always happy to take your feedback, questions and concerns. You can reach me by email at erin.schattauer@townsquaremedia.com.
