ROTARY CAREER SYMPOSIUM April 9 & 10, 2013

Volunteers are needed to help in various areas at the Rotary Career Sumposium during the day on Tuesday, April 9 and Wednesday, April 10. The Symposium will be taking place at the Winnipeg Convention Centre in Winnipeg.

If you can help out or wish further information please contact Sandy Nimik at 204-254-4907 or email stnimik@mts.net.

WANTED –

A copy of the school play about two bachelors who interview a series of females for a housekeeper job. This play was put on by numerous one room schools as part of the Christmas concert. It could have a variable number of grade six to eight girls depending on enrollment. If I'm not mistaken, the play book was available from the Textbook Bureau.

I would love to acquire either an original or a photocopy of the play for my son who is enrolled in theatre studies at York University and is researching early community theatre in small Manitoba schools. It would be a shame if this part of our heritage was not recorded.

Any other plays used in one-room schools would be appreciated.

Winnipeg’s little radio station that could is moving down the dial, and uP in the world of our listeners

CJNU is your memories station where you'll hear all your favourite music, whether that music is from the 1940s, '50s, '60s, or '70s.

CJNU's quest for a full-time broadcasting license from the CRTC has been successful. The Commission has announced that CJNU has been awarded a license to broadcast at 93.7 on the FM dial with a considerably stronger signal.

A welcome change will be the fact that CJNU will no longer have to go off the air at least one day each month. This happens now because it’s required under terms of the Industry Canada permits the station has been receiving for more than five years.

The broadcast signal will move from its present frequency of 107.9 FM to 93.7, with the launch expected in late August or early September of this year. One thing that will not change is the type of music we play and the feature programs offered on CJNU.

We will continue to be a 'wandering band of gypsies' with broadcasts originating from the facilities of various charitable and non-profit organizations. Consider becoming a member of our coop.

All members of the Nostalgia Broadcasting Cooperative are entitled to receive a copy of the current By-Laws upon request. Please call 942-2568 or send an e-mail to membership@cjnu.ca to arrange for delivery.

New members are always welcome!

You can apply for membership by downloading and mailing a Request for Membership Form in PDF format, by calling 204-942-CJNU (2568), or by sending an email to membership@cjnu.ca.
