Program description: As a new Sooke online radio station launches, we’ll take a look at how it all got started, what the vision is for the future, and how Sooke community members of all ages can be involved. With plans to eventually secure FM status, Sue will share how her journalism expertise brought her to this perfect moment in Sooke’s future. She will explain how a new radio station can bring people of all ages together, and what content is being planned to launch this new media.
