CFRC Funding Drive Events

CFRC 101.9fm, Kingston's only campus and community radio station, wants
to be your Valentine this year. CFRC celebrates its fifth annual Funding
Drive this February 5-14!

As a not-for-profit, volunteer-based, listener-supported station, CFRC
relies on contributions made during the Funding Drive for a significant
portion of its operating revenue. The goal for this year's campaign is
$25,000, to be raised during 10 days of special on-air programming and
exciting community events including:

Saturday February 6th a rare performance by Montreal's DaZoque!
alongside Kingston's Swamp Ward Orchestra and Peter Deachman at 9pm at
the Mansion, 506 Princess Street;

Wednesday February 10th a live performance and broadcast of "A Windy
Radio Drama," written and produced by CFRC volunteers and staged for the
first time in Wallace Hall, John Deutsch University Centre, Queen's at 8pm

Thursday February 11th a local indie showcase with PS I Love You, The
Gertrudes and others at the Time to Laugh Comedy Club, 394 Princess
Street starting at 7pm;

Saturday February 13th a Soul Shakedown dance party featuring CFRC djs
at the Time to Laugh comedy club at 10pm;

These are just a few of the many special events this year's Funding
Drive has to offer listeners and the community. For complete events and
