A Year of Being a “Friend” and “Companion”
This month marks the finale for KNOM’s 2016-2017 volunteer class, whose outstanding service your support has made possible.
Trash to Treasure
KNOM stretches operating funds as much as possible, given the high cost of everything in rural Alaska. One example: the salvaged shelves KNOM uses to hold its record library.
Honey Buckets, Slow Internet
Western Alaska’s lack of infrastructure and reliable basic services affect KNOM listeners profoundly. Through your support, it’s been a frequent subject of recent news stories.
Programming and News, By the Numbers
Through your support, inspiration, education, and news remain the focus of our daily work, as they have been since 1971. Thousands of times each year, KNOM’s broadcasts carry snapshots of our region: of its culture and heritage, its local news and stories, and its faith.
Meet Our New Newsies
We’re happy to introduce to you the news reporters of our volunteer class of 2016-2017; meet Davis Hovey and Tyler Stup.
Digital Studios: Operational!
In recent weeks, it’s been a tale of two studios at KNOM. As our brand-new, digital studios have become fully operational, our existing studio rooms have been getting a facelift.
