Repository gets new editor

CANTON – Jeff Gauger, managing editor of the Rockford (Ill.) Register Star, has been named executive editor of The Repository.

Gauger held the position in Rockford since 2005, when he came from the Omaha World-Herald where he was assistant managing editor/news after a variety of editor positions. He succeeds David Kaminski, who resigned to pursue other interests.

“Jeff is a great addition to the team here,” said Repository Publisher Kevin Kampman. “He is going to be able to lead us into the next era at The Repository” which includes integrating online and print journalism and expanding product lines.

Gauger plans to start Aug. 6.
