To celebrate their 29th birthday, 2BOB is launching Radiothon 2015 on Friday morning to run all this weekend, with a whole week’s programs crammed into the one fun weekend.

Radiothon 2015 is the major fundraiser for the year, and is the time when 2BOB asks listeners to phone in with their pledges of financial support for their favourite programs.  There will be lots of prizes on offer in return for those pledges to help raise the funds to put solar panels on the studio roof.

2BOB is run entirely by volunteers, providing alternative programming and access to the airwaves to individuals and community organisations in the Manning Valley and beyond, and now broadcasts to the world via 2BOB’s live stream.

So tune in to FM104.7 this weekend for 2BOB’s Radiothon and phone in on 6552 6200 with your financial pledges to help them raise the roof, reduce the footprint and help 2BOB become solar powered radio.
