They received a tour of our facility with question/answer sessions with various departments and copies of the Massachusetts Broadcasters Association "Careers in Radio Broadcasting" were handed out.

They also see how exciting and vibrant the world of radio is and what careers are available in this profession. We plan to continue to invite the community into Northampton Radio in the coming year as part of our community outreach efforts.
