Wow we really did it! We went live last Sunday April 6 and this Sunday we had our official Launch Party at Cafe Vosino, with local dignitaries and resident celebrities dropping in to show their support, people auditioning live on air to be our resident weather reporters, tons of people recording station IDs, and what felt like half the town dropping by to get stickers and dance to Broadcaster Natty's live tunes. It was so much fun!

Amazing volunteers running the info booth
We had door prizes donated from 6 local businesses - if you won, make sure to email info@sookeradio.c or join our discord

Thank you to everyone who made this event such a huge success! The three founders had our first meeting fleshing out the idea of a radio station for Sooke on April 14, 2024, and it is incredible to see our dream really happening a year later with the support of our awesome community.
