1986 Radio Heatherwood Fundraising

Marathon Fever & Gas Board Raffle

Two fundraising ventures this year were closely linked.

Our Friday presenter Frank Blasi who had previously run the Bracknell half marathon had decided this year he would once again get his customers on his window cleaning round to sponsor him.

The manager of the gas showroom in Bracknell John Tyler was also running in the marathon. The gas board showroom had approached us to donate a Cannon Cooker for a raffle prize to raise money for the League of friends.

The gas board had once before donated a cooker for the league to Raffle.

This year South Hill Park arranged a charity fundraising day with the option for charity stalls to set up on the field and this opportunity was used to sell tickets for the cooker and also raise the profile of the radio service.

Pictures of the marathon and the gas board raffle, were captured by the station secretary
PJ Davidson-Smith.

1986 The story Continues:-

Alice Refurbished

The original Alice mixer was put in for repair with a cost only for replacement parts.

The mixer would be used on the fete PA setup.

 

Studio Listening

These pictures were captured at the time, just before the area was due to be altered for the purpose built library racks.

These facilities for listening were built after the failed studio 2 project from 1983.

The ever increasing records for the station was making space a commodity we were very short of.

The metal record racks were overflowing and a drastic re-think on how we stored our records was needed.
