KCHU Programimg Updates
After looking over and over the comments from the community survey, discussing with the Community Advisory Board, staff and listeners, I have put together a new schedule. There were many comments, and by the nature of the diversity that makes us who we are, some programs were like and disliked, loved and hated. There was great debate and discussion in the changes made. There are some new programs and some moved around. Sunday has more changes that anticipated, but I think it is a better schedule that will be easier to enjoy. Very excited about some new programs as well. Their are many hours that are set aside for local volunteer shows, if you are interested then please contact us.
This draft schedule will be discussed further, so please e-mail gm@kchu.org with any comments you have. The first copy is the schedule with the shaded areas ready for a local volunteer. The second copy shows the changes a little easier with color coding for new and moved programs.
Thanks again to everyone who gave comments online, during the drive, and the many other ways we hear from our listeners. Also, thanks to the CAB for their insightful comment.
