This is from the Manager's Desk.
Last week, KGOU hosted Mike McGrath of “You Bet Your Garden” at the Myriad Botanical Gardens. The KGOU staff had a chance to talk with about 200 listeners and donors before Mike’s presentation.
It was wonderful! So many kind words from these listeners about the content we present on air and on the web.
At the reception and in other conversations, I heard from many who are worried about KGOU’s financial future. Here’s the answer I gave them.
Right now is unsettling because Oklahoma is suffering as the effects of the state budget revenue failure ripples out through so many sectors, and I think that affected the spring drive.
But past membership drives ended a little short of the goal and KGOU has always survived. And we will again this year. We know listeners are doing what they can, and more support will come in during the next two months. We are seeing it already -- donations coming in each day!
Thanks!
From the Manager’s Desk, I’m Karen Holp.
