WRKO Reunion Fast Approaching
The fun begins on Friday night, June 2 with the 50th Anniversary from 6-10pm in the Charles Ballroom of the Crowne Plaza in Newton. Following the dinner, Jordan Rich (left) will emcee the festivities, and a video of the event will be shot by “Radio’s Best Friend” Art Vuolo for inclusion in the Radio Hall Of Fame. The following evening, from 7-11pm, a very special event will take place — a tribute the glory days of WRKO, featuring five members of WRKO’s original “Now Crowd” playing hits from the Top 100 of 1967, using the original WRKO jingles! A live broadcast will air on WRKO and stream live via Backbone Networks, produced by George Capalbo Jr.
The deadline to RSVP and send in your $75 check is this Thursday, May 18. Sorry, but no walk-ups will be allowed to the Charles Ballroom. For more info, contact Mel Phillips at mel@melphillips.org.
