Some KSER Odds and Ends

• Reminder, this is the week that KSER's Ed Bremer wants to make sure you're registered to vote.  If you're not registered and you're going to be near downtown Everett during the day Tuesday, we'll make it easy.  Ed and some representatives of the League of Women Voters will be at Firewheel Books and Beans from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Firewheel is located at 2820 Oakes Avenue. 

• There's still time to make sure you have tickets to see Amy Goodman when she comes to Everett next month.  All the information is here.  The popular host of Democracy Now will be at Everett Community College Saturday afternoon, October 27th. If you know someone who is an Amy Goodman fan...or should be...make sure you let them know.

• We know many people don't really like pledge drives on the radio...or TV.  But think about it, aren't 3 or 4 pledge drives a year a lot better than listening to commercials every day of the year? The KSER Fall pledge drive starts this Friday.  If you're already a contributor to KSER, thank you very much. If you're a listener who doesn't contribute, you can certainly keep listening without contributing. But remember, it's primarily our listeners who do contribute who keep KSER available for all of us.

• The annual KSER Voice of the Community Award ceremony has been scheduled for Saturday evening, November 10th.  Mark your calenders if you want to have a fun evening and salute some great community leaders and individuals.  Details, including ticket information, will be released within the next two weeks.

• There are plenty of ways to help support the programming you like on KSER other than waiting for the pledge drives we do a few weeks out of the year.  You can buy KSER merchandise from our website; you can donate your old car...working or not...to receive a tax deduction and the proceeds benefit KSER; or you can just make a donation anytime you like here. It's easy, takes about 5 minutes...and you can set up a simple recurring donation so that once a month any amount that's comfortable for you will be automatically donated to KSER.

• If you still haven't had enough of the political season, remember the presidential and vice-presidential debates are coming up in October. And if you can't be near a TV you will be able to hear all four of the debates on KSER.org or 90.7 FM.  

• If you have had your fill of the political season, when the debates begin you can always log onto KSER.org and use our Radio Replayer to listen to something more soothing!
