CKDU FUNDING DRIVE - FEBRUARY 2nd to 11th
CKDU's eleventh annual funding drive is happening again for ten days
in the beginning of February. This year's aptly chosen slogan is 'CKDU Gives
People Ideas'.
As a campus-community radio station, CKDU will depend on both
arenas for the success of this year's Drive right from the word go: events
will be held both on and off Dalhousie's campus to promote CKDU and the
Drive.
Keeping with tradition, the Drive begins with a live remote
"kick-off" broadcast on Friday, February 2nd, 1PM in the Student Union
Building Green Room. This year's kick-off features local musical acts
Piggy, Paul Atanya (of Afro Musica) and Dusty Sorbet.
On Saturday, February 3rd an All Ages Show will also be held in
the SUB Green Room, this time featuring Trike, Thruster, Carnage Family
and Corvette Summer.
Also according to tradition, three benefit shows will be held at
the Birdland Cabaret February 8th through 10th. The specific acts have
yet to be confirmed.
And there is also a pool tournament planned for during the week of
the Drive at '"Q Billiard's" downtown. Traditionally, the event features
members of local bands vying for an exciting prize.
So remember to dial and donate between February 2nd and 11th in order to
keep CKDU 97.5 FM on the air -- CKDU depends on the proceeds from the Drive to
fulfill 20% of its budget.
The number to call to support "CKDU Gives People Ideas" is
42-HAPPY between February 2nd and 11th.
