Elvis, Melvis: Music with a-peel on KZBX

300px-MelvisWILLIAMS — While vacationing in Laughlin, we thought we found the perfect gift for Maggie who manages the Camp Civitan Shop in downtown Williams.

Maggie Peel started her broadcasting career at KZBX 92.1 FM in Williams by broadcasting Elvis tunes for her show Elvis With A-Peel. She even got in early today to purchase her issue of the latest Elvis stamps available at the post office. Thus we got her the Elvis glasses to help get her in character.

Alas, she has changed her format. She still plays Elvis, but added country and contemporary music in the mix. So now her show is just Music With A-Peel. You can hear her show from 4-6 p.m. on KZBX or listen to the show on their web site.

During the day you can meet the mega-radio personality at her day job, and possibly pick up some deals, at the Camp Civitan Thrift Store in downtown Williams next to Old Smokey’s restaurant. Camp Civitan Thrift Shop is currently open from 11 a.m to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
