roland-story.com

I'm really excited to tune in to Roland and Story City's first "radio station". Roland-Story.com went live this morning. My buddy Paul Clark, who started norsemennetwork.com 5 years ago, which covered Roland-Story athletics, is starting the transition to a full service radio station. No over the air transmitter for now, but it is on the web, and soon to be on mobile phones as well.

So from 7-9 AM there will be a live morning show with local news, weather, and interviews. And indeed this morning, I heard local news about Roland and Story City and from our school.

Paul worked in small town radio before, and this sounds just like it. If you have listened to morning shows on KQWC from Webster City, and KWBG in Boone, this is very similar. Only it is for the Roland-Story community.

Then the remainder of the day, it is just music from the 70s, 80s, and 90s. There is also two channels, so if there are two R-S events, like softball and baseball, or wrestling and basketball, each sporting event can be covered.

So while the studio is in Story City, this really is a business that is supporting Roland too, so this is a good thing for us as well. CLICK HERE to check out The Rocket: roland-story.com
