On May 5, 2015, Big Dave Anderson of Brimson recorded his program demo (The Beat Farm) with guest musician and friend Kelly Lusk at KTWH’s studio – becoming the first person to actually record anything in the new studio – a landmark day for Two Harbors Community Radio!

Coming to Two Harbors Saturday February 28, 7pm at the Harbor Theater!

Radio Variety Show at Harbor Theater, Feb. 28, 7pm - see you there!

Radio Variety Show at Harbor Theater, Feb. 28, 7pm – see you there!

Two Harbors Community Radio/KTWH is thrilled to bring you a true variety of local talent – music, storytelling and radio theater – at our first radio variety show. We hope this will become a regular event.

Part awareness-raiser, part fund-raiser, the tickets are reasonably priced at $5 to be sure you can come, and the popcorn will be free! But you are welcome to donate what you can to help us get on the air by later this spring.

Several local businesses have signed on as event sponsors for donations of $250 and more (check out their logos on the poster). But businesses may still be acknowledged as supporters for donations of $50 and up – all will be featured in the printed program as well as during the show, which is being recorded for future broadcast on KTWH. All sponsoring and supporting businesses will be acknowledged on our website after the event.

Businesses wanting to be recognized as KTWH supporters in the program should contact us by Monday, February 23, at THCommRadio@gmail.com, at 834-2247, or at PO Box 622, TH 55616. Most days there is also someone in our office/studio in the Harbor Landing building between 1 and 3pm.

We hope this is just the first of a regular schedule of radio variety shows, eventually to be broadcast live on KTWH 99.5fm. But be among the privileged few to witness the birth of a new cultural institution for Two Harbors this February 28!

Thanks to April Laakkonen’s scouting skills, Johnson Carpet One’s generosity, Shary Zoff’s pickup truck and Leo Babeu, Larry Ronning and Tom Koehler’s ingenuity and strong backs, KTWH is the happy recipient of 600 square feet of NEW carpeting today! (ask the experts from carpet cleaning grand junction for suggestions on choosing the best for your home) Why 600 square feet when half of our 540 square foot space is already carpeted? It will line the walls and floors of the studio and production rooms for sound deadening. For the best carpets, see the selection at J & D Oriental Rug Co. if you need the best carpets at the best price.

Johnson Carpet One of west Duluth made the donation after April’s inquiry late last week, and it all went off without a hitch this afternoon, just the box of Shary’s truck and another kind of truck of Tom’s to ferry it into our old office space, temporarily. You can also glare at this great site to avail truck services . And finally thanks to all concerned!
For now we will suspend our call for carpeting until we see if what we have will work out. But if people want carpet, they can consider going to Indian Handmade Rugs to see exquisite varieties of carpets. For cleaning of already existing carpets, people can check out carpet cleaning wilmington nc. Thank you all for your inquiries and suggestions. Keep watching for further developments on the studio front. It’s starting to look exactly like the model whose picture we posted last time! And we are now moved into the new office space, so watch for more pictures soon…
