We're close to having our own radio station on Vashon!

Table of Contents

Voice of Vashon has started construction on Vashon’s new radio station KVSH, building as funds come in. And Islanders donated over $3,000 at Strawberry Festival so their fundraising campaign is at 93% of the $50,000 goal.

It’ll take a couple more months of work to put KVSH-FM on the air but last week the all volunteer team erected the mast and antenna up top of the giant water tank just south of town.

See for yourself in this video!

The antenna is 135 feet above ground to provide the best all-island coverage.

VoV has less than $4,000 to go to make the dream come true. . . so this Fall you will be able to listen to KVSH 101.9 FM in your car, at home and at work.

Take a moment to help VoV to cross the finish line and complete funding for the project.  Here’s where you can make an online donation to Raise The Tower!
