radio?

Inishowen Community
Radio (ICR fm) is looking for people with "vision
and drive" to join its board of directors.
Existing members, local community groups and the
general public are invited to attend the station's
AGM at the end of the month.
The not-for-profit, community-owned and operated
station has had another successful year and is
hoping for many more in the years to come. |

"The community here has
an important role in shaping our future development.
Several directors of the current board are stepping
down and we need people with vision, drive and
commitment to take their place," said station
manager, Jim Doherty. |
"As a member of the
Inishowen community sector or just someone with an
interest in radio, I urge you to attend on the night
and make your voice heard."
A community or voluntary group becomes a member of
the company on payment of an annual membership fee
of €20 and the nominated representative is entitled
to attend and vote at the AGM and elect members to
the board of directors.
Any member of the public can become a member of the
company by joining as a volunteer and can also
attend and vote at the AGM.
"As a member of the company and as a representative
of your community group I urge you to attend this
meeting on the night," added Jim.
"We have big plans for the future but we need the
local community to get more involved and help direct
our development."
ICR aims to be a voice for north Inishowen and
hopefully all of Inishowen when the new community
station in Buncrana gets up and running. The station
aims to reflect the diverse cultural, social, and
sporting heritage of the area. It says it can only
realise its role in the life of the local community
through the community's active involvement in the
station.
If you would like more information on how to get
involved, please call 074 9329105. The AGM will be
held in McClure's Bar, Carndonagh, on Thursday, May
31st, at 7.30 p.m. |
