About Casair Broadcasting
Operating under Casair's umbrella company, Casair in conjunction with CMPS (Central
Montcalm Public School) has put together a pilot program to broadcast or record events.
This is done both pre-recorded or live and over Internet or FM radio. This will
include Internet Audio/Radio, Internet Video/TV, FM radio or a combination. Casair
is providing the equipment, data transport and technical expertise. Casair has two
school-to-work employees involved; Michael Ruggles Jr. is handling the technical
aspect and Chelsea Smith is handling coordination and calling the shots. They are
being assisted by Kevin Wagenmaker's Multimedia class handling media and pre-recorded
interviews with Sheena Sander's English class handling scripting and interview questions.
Casair is excited to provide the students with experience, and also provide community
with media that otherwise would not be available.
Our long term vision is to create a self sustaining, non-profit organization by utilizing
advertising revenue and some DVD sales to purchase additional equipment and eventually
hire a person to constantly improve the program's broadcasts.
”The program is
offering the students a chance to learn the ever changing media, and I feel students
can learn more in one day of real-life broadcasting than in weeks of school assignments.“
-Steven R. Meinhardt, President of Casair, Inc.
