2. Grover Cobb Memorial Project
In 1951 Grover Cobb, general manager of KVGB AM in Great Bend, organized the first meeting of the Kansas Association of Radio Broadcasters (now the KAB). He later served as KAB Board President and mentored many young broadcasters. Grover received the Distinguished Service Award from the KAB in 1971 and was the third inductee into the Kansas Broadcasting Hall of Fame. Taking his talents to a national level, he served as radio board chair for the National Association of Broadcasters, and later joined the NAB serving as Senior Executive Vice President at the time of his death in 1975.
