WGDR Annual Meeting Saturday Feb 6 WGDR’s annual meeting and potluck reception is just around the corner on Saturday February 6. The meeting this year takes place in the morning, from 9am to noon, in the Haybarn Theater at Goddard College in Plainfield. We’ll look back on the past year, and forward to the year to come. We’ll also hear reports from the Community Advisory Board (CAB) and Policy Advisory Council (PAC). Current WGDR Programmers will also elect four new PAC members at the meeting. Our guest speaker this year will be Ginny Berson, Vice-President and Director of Federation Services for the National Federation of Community Broadcasters, NFCB. Her topic will be “Community Radio in the 21st Century –How it Will Survive and Thrive.” Ginny will also be at the WGDR studios in the afternoon to answer any questions people might have in a more informal setting. WGDR will provide beverages and some fine morning munchies, like bagels and muffins. But in the spirit of “potluck” celebration, we’ll also welcome people to bring other delicious offerings to share. The event is open to the public, and once again will be moderated by Judy Cyprian of Plainfield.
