This year Cork Harbour Open Day had a unique extra feature on the programme- its very own radio station. Broadcasting on 98.3FM and online, Cork Harbour Community Radio went on air at 11am, live from the foyer of the National Maritime College of Ireland in Ringaskiddy. With a mixture of interviews, music and information on the Open Day, CHCR delivered an engaging snapshot of a 'Day In The Life' of Cork Harbour.
Pre-recorded interviews were recorded by Cormac Gebruers, Suzanne Gebruers and Ken Cotter. Technical assisstance was provided by Kieran Hurley (UCC 98.3FM). Dj's for the day were Ken Cotter (11-3 & 5-6) and Conor Lyons (3-5).
