KRFY Morning Show topics dip into giving, Festival – and an eyewitness to history

Airtime is 8 a.m.

TomCartyWednesday, April 26: Morning Show host Suzy Prez has a special program in store, with Waldorf eighth grade student and KRFY intern Tom Carty will be sharing his exclusive interview with Sue Vogelsinger, a local resident who worked in the administration of President John F. Kennedy in the years up to and sadly including his death. Airtime is 8 a.m.

WineFestivalThursday, April 27: Tune in to the Thursday edition of the KRFY Morning Show with hosts Jack Peterson and Jim Healey as they talk with Dyno Wahl, executive director of the Festival at Sandpoint, about the following night’s Wine Festival at the Bonner County fairgrounds – plus planning for the 2017 Festival music series coming in August.  That’s at 8 a.m. on 88.5 KRFY community radio.

SOS forum recording

A “Save Our Schools” town hall was held Sept 12 at the Ponderay Events Center, and was recorded and broadcast by KRFY the following day. A capacity crowd heard discussion by a local panel on the impact on public schools of the Parental Choice Tax Credit, aka House Bill 93, that was approved by the Idaho Legislature to provide $50 million in funding to families who educate their children in private schools.  Did you miss the forum?

A note on KRFY funding

How has defunding and closure of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting affected KRFY? Our station is funded solely by listeners, supporters and underwriters and has never received funding from the CPB. But some syndicated shows KRFY airs will be affected. The National Federation of Community Broadcasters has prepared a statement on impacts of the CPB closure. Click to read it.
