Radio Festival in Pictures
Radio Festival was yet another mammoth effort by a community of music lovers and thank you to the 300+ volunteers who helped out during our BIGGEST event: Radio Festival. Thank you to the fantastic volunteers who put at the call on air 24/7 from May 15-28. Thank you to those who answered phone calls from 6am right through 'til midnight, entered memberships into the database, packed and sent memberships and renewals, who decorated, served other volunteers, took photos, updated social media, helped with the administrative mop up and kept this radio station running tight during the fundraiser! Your help was invaluable and we couldn’t do it without you and appreciate your assistance greatly. Hope to catch you at the wrap party!

| And this is how appreciative Dingo AKA Jamie Suppa is of the volunteers who answered the calls during 'It's A Gas' |
 |

It is important for
all volunteers and staff to be familiar with this. See the P&P here and http://pbs.org.au/policy. The Policies and
Procedures Handbook ensures that PBS remains in safe compliance with the Codes
of Practice and other relevant legislation. It also positions PBS volunteers,
announcers and staff to operate with a shared, clear understanding of how
things work at PBS. Please read it carefully. And if you’re inspired, why not
consider becoming a PBS shareholder?
