Our annual 2024 fundraising Marathon ran from April 1-14 this year. Because we are 100% listener supported, your contribution means everything to us! Call to donate, (860) 439-2850 or (860) 439-2851.
Thank you so much to everyone who donated this year, and helped us reach our fundraising goal!
The Open House is your chance to visit the station, pick up your prizes, meet the DJs, see our studios, and peruse the vintage shirts and other prizes not available over the air. 2024 Hours were:
- Friday April 12 2 pm – 8 pm
- Saturday April 13 10 am – 8 pm
- Sunday April 14 2 pm – 8 pm
We hope to see you then!
UPDATE
We now need to move our radio antenna by summer of 2025 because of construction at Connecticut College. We would like to take this opportunity to upgrade our antenna type, so that all within our listening range will get better reception. This upgrade will cost around $14,000 above our regular operating expenses.
Thank you for your generosity this year, and every year!
