DAWN WELLS (STATION MANAGER)
Although I don’t get to go on air much. I do enjoy working in radio behind the scenes and sometimes on air. I love all types’ of hard rock music. My first experience in radio was when Membertou Radio started back in 2003. I was taking photos of the tower being built & later developed them in the dark room. I was a media arts student then. Later I met the first Membertou Radio crew, & decided I wanted to work in radio either on air or behind the scenes. I worked for Membertou Radio for a while on air, programming & production. Later on I went to college for my Radio & Television Arts Programs, graduated in 2006. From there on, I worked in different media outlets, CBC Radio/ Television, EASTLINK Television & CTV Atlantic for a while. Then came back to my lovely community of Membertou & C99 FM. I wanted Membertou Radio to be unique again, as it was back in 2003. I wanted a cool radio station where Native content & Culture can be in the mixture with Today’s Popular New Rock Hits. I’m a creative person, I love making videos for fun, Photoshop, I enjoy ghost stories, mysterious, historic places, nature, & hiking with my family. Like to know more about C99, or have a question send me an email: dawnwells@membertou.ca |
