Was it just me, or did Riverfest seem bigger and better than ever this year? The carnival was shiny and new, with cool lighting on the rides. The weather was just about perfect on Saturday, with lots of people enjoying the beach, the boardwalk and tours of the Edna Lockwood. The fireworks were spectacular as […]
Thanks to everyone for the continued support. Our June 1 launch weekend was a lot of fun and we heard a lot of wonderful feedback about the music and programs! After a bit of a bump in the road technically, we are back on air, working on making our signal more reliable. We are also […]
While we had a great launch and lots of people have congratulated us on a job well done, the one thorn in our side is that we have had a bit of down time in our first day on the air. Our transmitter seems to be having some problems and cuts off now and then […]
Today we moved the radio studio gear. A small band of volunteers loaded the equipment and furniture generously donated by the Frederickburg Christian School into the back of a pickup truck generously loaned to us for the task, and drove it to our new home at the Chamber of Commerce where they are donating space […]

I will be meeting with the current licensee on Friday to discuss the logistics of transition. We are on track for our official […]

We have some enthusiastic individuals coming up with program ideas and already starting to make test recordings of shows (basically pilot shows). I’d like to single out […]
Do rainy days make you want to listen to the radio? I hope so. As I write this, it is pouring in Colonial Beach – again! Seems like a good time to be sitting on the porch listening to the radio! We are hard at work coming up with show ideas that we hope you […]
I’m happy to announce our first ongoing underwriting pledge! Underwriting, is where a person, business or organization support WWER with an ongoing donation, and we recognize that support with on air announcements. This week, the American Legion voted on a silver level underwriting plan at $50 per month for one year. We are very grateful […]
