Welcome to our newest local information program!
KSVR is now researching web site development help with assistance of the Community Service Grant from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. In the coming months, provision for maintenance of the website will be implemented. All part of the growing community radio service for the Skagit Valley College district.
Annual Membership cards for 2008!
We want YOU to be a 'card-carrying' member of KSVR.
Only $25
News: Skagit Valley College/KSVR has received approval to begin a new radio station for the Upper Skagit River Valley!
The filing was accepted by the Federal Communications Commission, and we received our construction permit. This month signifies the birthdate of the new station, and the 35th Anniversary for KSVR! The SVC/KSVR radio service staff has started discussions for upcoming detailed planning to build the station, create a production facility, and for meeting with residents of Lyman, Hamilton, Birdsview, Concrete, and Rockport, to prepare for the production of local programming.
This application has already cost SVC and KSVR over $8000 in engineering, legal, and staff hours.
We are not finished. We expect to need nearly $30,000 in public support to make the radio station a reality.
While a "matching" grant is available to help, and we are intending to apply, it will require a matching contribution from local fund raising efforts. We are starting now in that effort and you could be one of the first to be acknowledged:
You can help KSVR extend service to our neighbors by becoming a member for $25.
