WTLC Radio (Summer 2016)

This summer, I had the opportunity to launch Timber Lake Camp‘s first Radio Broadcasting Program in over ten years. This meant essentially building a low power AM frequency radio station from SCRATCH and managing it for the summer!

My responsibilities included setting up the equipment and software, developing the station’s objectives and lesson plans for 400+ campers ranging from 9-16 year old— and then the easier part…getting them to fall in love with RADIO!

Here’s a few snapshots from the summer at WTLC Radio at different phases of constructing the studio.
