Notes, News and Views from Day One of WDAV”s Celebration 2008 Fall Fundraiser:
So, just who is listening to WDAV at 5 o”clock in the morning? For one month now, Mike McKay has been waking the WDAV faithful an hour earlier, with the Classic Commute kicking off at 5 am, as part of Classical Public Radio”s for our 30th anniversary season.
So we thought we”d brew up a little reward for the early-morning risers (or late-night-go-to-bedders!) with the launch of the WDAV Breakfast Club….a special incentive for any listeners who called in or made an online pledge before 6 am: Not only a WDAV coffee mug (hey, we”re a public radio station, after all!), but also a whole bag of coffee beans from Summit Coffee in Davidson. And whadya know? Turns out there are plenty of listeners, from near and far, online and over the air, who are now charter members. Including one new member in the Smoky Mountains gateway town of Otto, NC, some 200 miles away from the WDAV transmitter!
