Worth a Thousand Words and Sports!

Below are some pictures from last Fall's activities. Check back for more from earlier in our history.

Also, this Saturday we will be broadcasting the North-South Varsity Boys Basketball game live on the radio. We are also videotaping it for a future run on Cable 99! The game starts at 7:30.

A New Year, A New Schedule!

WDGC has finally recovered from its two-month-long birthday celebration and is back with a brand new schedule of DJs.

The schedule is full of your old favorites and some new DJs too.

Also, rumor has it WDGC has been busy uploading more pictures from the station's history. So check back to learn more about WDGC's 42-year history!

Happy Birthday!

On November 25th, 1968 WDGC was granted permission to begin broadcasting on 88.3 FM.

We are celebrating a bit early, and for its forty-second birthday, WDGC got a brand new Ipod doc, as seen in the picture above.

Check out our first posts from 2008 to see photos of the original telegram from the FCC.

Tomorrow, on the 24th, WDGC will be handing out cotton candy in the cafeteria during all lunch periods. People who rock can jump to the head of the line! On the 25th, WDGC will celebrate both its birthday and Thanksgiving by bringing you the biggest variety of music--that's a promise!

Tune in and Rock out!

WDGC: Award Winning Radio!

WDGC DJs Eareen Yambao and Shane Gustafson were honored today at the John Drury High School Radio Awards hosted by North Central College.

Shane was recognized as one of the top five high school sportscasters in the nation, facing competition from as far away as Michigan and Connecticut. Shane had submitted a segment of his broadcast of last year's football game against Glenbard West.

Eareen received the third place award for his public service announcement. The 1:00 psa centered on the problem of distracted driving among teenagers and featured two girls having a contest about who could do the most things while driving. You can listen to the PSA by clicking on it to the right of this post. We will work on uploading Shane's sportscast as well.

Congratulations to Shane and Eareen!

Plans are already underway for next year's entries...

Rescue and a Visitor

The balloons have been removed from the antenna, and the transmitter has been sent off for repair. Keep listening online!

We also had a visit from a strange character. We told him it was not polite to point, but he just wouldn't stop. We were able to snap this picture before he fled. Jigga Wha?
