That time is upon us! Funding Drive. It's stressful, but exciting. Tiring, but inspiring. Chaotic, but superfun!
We all know community radio needs funds to survive, and we also know our listeners value what we do and want to support us! Let's raise $26,000 and keep this station humming!
If we all chip in, I know we can do it!

9. SOCAN COMETH...OCTOBER 27, 28, 29 & 30
All programmers with a show airing on October 27 - 30 will have to fill out the paper SOCAN logs! Please be sure to fill out all the info! Be extra-sure to fill out the time of day, composer/author, usage and duration! A sample log will be in MCR!
SOCAN (the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada) logs are part of a statistical sampling of music used throughout the country and are used to make an equitable division of SOCAN revenues to writers and publishers of music in Canada and throughout the world. Therefore, it is extremely important for clarity and accuracy in the logs.
For the SOCAN period, be extra sure to reach your Canadian content requirements and play your favorite local/Canadian band! They'll get paid!
To find out composer/author info for the SOCAN log check the album's liner notes. If that does not provide the answer check:
