Let's Go Outdoors Radio Network expands coverage

August 28, 2007
Edmonton - Four Alberta radio stations have been added to the Let's Go Outdoors Radio network:
* 106.1 FM in Airdrie
* 95.3 FM in Cochrane / MD Rocky View
* 790-CFCW based in Camrose
* CIQX FM out of Calgary
Starting this weekend, both the half-hour program and daily features will be heard on 106.1 FM in Airdrie and 95.3 FM in Cochrane. Both stations are run by Tiessen Media with their signals also serving the Municipal District of Rocky View. The half-hour program will be heard Sunday mornings at 7:30 am. The daily features run on a rotating basis, at various times throughout the week.
Tiessen Media's Program Director Bruce Daniels is pleased with the new programming element being added to their stations: "We're a community-based station focused mainly on local programming. Let's Go Outdoors is a perfect fit for our station and our listeners. It's a program that benefits anyone who enjoys the great outdoors!"
Starting on Sunday, October 7th, Let's Go Outdoors will also be featured on the number one country music station in the province, 790-CFCW based in Camrose. On the same day, Let's Go Outdoors returns to Calgary via CIQX FM. Both stations will air the program Sunday mornings at 7:30 a.m.
Of course, the expansion of the Let's Go Outdoors radio network would not be possible without the continued support of outstanding sponsors: The Alberta Fish and Game Association, The Alberta Professional Outfitters Society and ARGO Distributor, along with a number of advertisers and key segment supporters. It is only through their financial support that Let's Go Outdoors can remain on the air and continue to communicate to Albertans messages about our province's rich outdoor heritage.
