Read Me for Important Information!	Before Dinner Sunday Night!	This schedule is just part of everything that's happening! You already know that you can work on the station, building it and tinkering, the whole time these workshops are going on. There will also be a a separate small group track for news production that will be held in parallel with the other workshops, for example! it will have 3 or 4 groups of 3 people, plus a trainer, working on producing a short news segment to be played Sunday night on the radio. Wow! There may be a number of other exciting workshops that happen throughout these three days, at impromptu times, or scheduled formally. Please check back at registration consistently so you can know all the goodies!
News Production Track		Whether you are new to radio or an experienced producer, if you’re interested in helping produce a few collaborative pieces about Portsmouth Community Radio and the barnraising, join the news production track. By the end of this track, you will learn how to record, write and produce a news feature. We’ll get together in the first session and break off into small groups of three along with a trainer. Then, during the weekend, you and your group can either attend various sessions and/or spend time interviewing people, editing, and writing your stories. On Sunday evening, we'll have some great pieces to play for the group and broadcast on WSCA!
