Preserve CKCU’s Legacy – Support the 50th Anniversary Book
For nearly 50 years, CKCU has been a pillar of independent and community-driven radio, amplifying diverse voices, fostering innovation, and shaping Ottawa’s cultural landscape. As we approach our 50th anniversary on FM in November, we’re creating a high-quality, 12”x12” hard cover book to celebrate CKCU’s incredible journey.
This commemorative book will feature:
* Personal stories from key contributors, volunteers, and listeners
* Historic photographs documenting the station’s evolution
* Testimonials reflecting CKCU’s impact over five decades
We're inviting you to support this project -- and secure your copy of the book -- by making a contribution at the GoFundMe site at this link: https://gofund.me/875d8791

Neil & Drake, The Dancing Labrador
Thank you Chris for your curation over the years. You are a true community champion. And thanks today for a little gem of a song, "impromptu" by Marie-Lynn Hammond. I just searched for it online and discovered how rare that recording is to find. Only through CKCU, would I have the chance to find the grace in songwriting that touches the heart by artists only heard on this legendary radio station ! So thank you again for all the time you have invested over the years to ensure the success of The Mighty 93.1
