Whoo hoo! We did it!

Dated June, 18th, the CRTC awarded the Smithers Community Radio Society with a Developmental Radio Broadcasting License. The ball is officially in our court.
With little hesitation, the board met for our Annual General Meeting on June 30th to discuss the next steps. The minutes are included in the section "latest news", but the short and sweet is that we have created 3 tasks forces to prepare for our launch:

Abdel Naroth (currently our Program Director) is leading a crew that is geting equipment and studio ready for broadcasting.

Glen Ingram and Gareth Reid are getting intro. training sessions ready to help transition volunteers into trained broadcasters.

Taylor Bachrach and Facundo Gastiazoro are heading a team that will be focussed on communicating to citizens who we are and what we are doing. Look for some exciting events like a float at the Fall Fair Parade and booth at the Fair Grounds and possibly a "coming out" party or two.

If you want to be involved in getting us on air quickly, contact one of the organizers listed:
