New Program Takes to the Air at WPVM

A group of area poets and writers have worked this summer to put together a weekly thirty minute program that will feature poets and other writers live in the studios of WPVM, 103.5 FM. The series will also sometimes catch its quary live in the wild, at readings or other performances. Titled WordPlay, the series kicks off on Sunday October 9th at 4:00 PM. There's an exciting roster of writers already on the schedule, and more to come.

If you can't pick up The Progressive Voice of the Mountains (I can't at home), the signal also goes out via the web. The station is in the process of relocating its transmitter, so should soon have better FM coverage of the city.

There'll be more information in October's Rapid River; it'll be hitting the racks next Saturday, Oct.1st.

And more later here.
