The next virtual meeting of the BPR Community Forum is scheduled for Wednesday October 26, 6:00-7:30 PM via Zoom. BPR will share station updates, review a draft survey to gather Community Forum member feedback on programming and needs from their communities, and preview recruitment for new Forum members.
The Blue Ridge Public Radio Community Forum is a volunteer group that provides input to BPR about programming, public service and community engagement. The members of the Forum represent different backgrounds, geographic regions, and needs and interests of the communities Blue Ridge Public Radio serves.
The BPR Community Forum is an advisory committee, which is not involved directly in the station's daily management or operations. Forum members learn about public radio, meet Blue Ridge Public Radio staff members, and have regular communication with the station about how to strengthen our service to local communities.
The public is invited to attend and observe Community Forum meetings. For more information, please contact Catherine Komp by Tuesday October 25th, 2022 by emailing ckomp@bpr.org or calling 828.210.4830 to register for the Zoom meeting.
