About Casair Broadcasting
In the 2007-2008 school year, 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.
In 2009 we have been donating time and equipment to various events and have
added live TV via Internet along with recording and making DVDs for later
purchase.
