JUNE 20, 2012 

Dear Friends,   

 

Our June Pledge Drive is nearing its final stretch. Thursday, June 21, is the final day for on-air pledging in support of Portsmouth Community Radio. The number to call to make your pledge is 603-430-9722.

 

Interested donors can still pledge online or via mail (909 Islington Street, Suite #1, Portsmouth, NH 03801) by June 27 to get in on our Grand Prize drawing. Everyone who pledges during this period is automatically entered to win.

 

The Grand Prize this year is a summer CSA share, worth $550, from Heron Pond Farm. That means you'll receive fresh fruits and vegetables weekly throughout the summer. If you've been to any of the local farmers' markets, you've seen Heron Pond Farm's produce . . . and now you have the chance to officially be part of community supported agriculture while supporting Portsmouth Community Radio.

Thank you to those who have already sent in their pledge!
 

It was a full house in the studio to kick off the June Pledge Drive.
 

Auction of Vintage Musician Photos Happening Today!

 

This framed Beach Boys photo is among the many that will be auctioned.

On Wednesday, June 20, Uno Chicago Grill in Dover is holding an auction of many of the antiques that were previously in the restaurant. Portsmouth Community Radio will receive the proceeds from the sale of the restaurant's framed photos of musicians. These include photos of the Beatles, B.B. King, Louis Armstrong, and more. 

 

Portsmouth Community Radio's John Lovering and Bob McDermott will be at the auction, calling in the status of these items between 6 and 7 p.m. to Damon Thomas, who will man the board in our studio. No bids will be accepted by phone - you must attend the auction at 238 Indian Brook Road, Dover. 

  

Thank You to Our In-Kind Pledge Drive Supporters!
