KPOV is one of the founding members of a new network linking community media organizations across the state. In their second programming collaboration Oregon Community Media brings you stories of winter heating throughout Oregon.
Learn how people are heating their houses around Oregon this month, as KPOV High Desert Community Radio brings you voices of our diverse regions. The one-hour program includes contributions from several community radio stations, which are members of Oregon Community Media. The network was created this year to strengthen independent stations serving audiences from Florence to Fossil. All share a commitment to community service and keeping local voices alive on the radio dial.
KPOV will carry the collaborative heating program during the following hours:
• Thursday, December 12, from 5-6pm
• Tuesday, December 17, from 5 p.m. to 6pm.
• Wednesday, December 18, from 7am-8am.
