Stroud FM Calendar 2012 Launched

!!! Order Yours Now !!!

Wow!

That seems to have been the general reaction to the 2012 Stroud FM ‘Uncovered’ Calendar that was unveiled to the world at Monday night’s Launch party at BarNine here in Stroud!

All of the individual calendar photos (taken by Tammy Lynn Photography) had been printed in large and were displayed on Easels for everyone to see before they bought their very own calendar to take home, but before they took them home a lot of people took the opportunity to get their calendars signed by the models (nearly all of whom made it to the event)! There was a distinct buzz to the place, added to that the giant screen, kindly supplied by MRG Systems, was streaming a live Twitter Feed with some great comments coming through from guests, presenters and other well-wishers who couldn’t be there.

"Trading Post", "Confection Affection", "Cornflower & Calico", "Music Dynamics" and "The Prince Albert" are stocking the calendars for us, and of course, we have some at the radio station too!

Also – the large prints displayed at the Launch are for sale, so if you want your chance to take home a fabulous and unique piece of artwork then do please let us know – we are auctioning them off silently to raise some extra funds, if you would like to bid then please submit your bid by email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Stroud FM is celebrating following the amazing response from the public and the local community, which has saved it from closure. The station, which is staffed by volunteers, faced coming off air at the end of September following a shortfall in funding. But a series of fundraising activities, a tough look at how costs could be cut and pledges of support from local energy firm Ecotricity and Education Provider Five Valleys Foyer, have so far, saved the day.
