The Sydney Mines Highland Games are taking place this Saturday.
The games are held in memory of coal miners, with each of heavy events division named after a coal mine on the northside. Events begin on August 19 11 a.m. and run all day with a 5k run, kids games, tug of war, highland dancing performances, and more.
This is the first year for the event, organized by Antigonish native Fr. Doug MacDonald.
Broadcast Dialogue has announced the winners of the inaugural Canadian Radio Awards, which we’ve dubbed “The Howards” after our publisher emeritus Howard Christensen.
When Howard, a radio veteran and one of the original Broadcast News anchors, founded Broadcast Dialogue in 1992, he saw a need for both timely delivery of Canadian broadcast industry news, but also recognized the importance of creating a sense of community.
989 XFM is very proud to be the winner of the 2020 Station of Year – Small Market award.
