We look forward to reviewing your proposal and getting the music you love on the air.

First, a little about BCR. The primary goal of community radio is to provide diverse radio programming to under-served communities in the Treasure Valley - providing a voice to the voiceless. The community radio station will highlight unique content that is not heard on current radio broadcasts. We will also strive to for variety in our programming schedule and expect that diverse music shows will make up roughly 75% of our weekly schedule.

BCR will also serve as a community-wide bulletin board for issues-oriented information and act a performance platform for the creative skills of local musicians, artists and youth. Inspiring creativity in the process of addressing community issues and enhancing social, cultural and environmental awareness is our goal. By increasing opportunities for members of the community to access local media to talk and listen to one another, community radio will help grow our local “cultural health”, enhance the quality of place, and further the American tradition of democracy.

Now we’d like to hear about your show. Don’t be intimidated by the following questions—they’re meant to give us an idea of what you want your show to be. Answer can be as short or as long as appropriate.
