Kay Clements - Station Manager

The KWMR West Marin Report is taking a hiatus while we seek a new News Producer. We sincerely regret this break in our news service to you.

Covering the news for KWMR is expensive. It requires a dedicated producer to manage gathering, editing and producing the news, as well as coordinating news submitted by our generous volunteers. We are committed to providing daily news, and hope that this break will be a short one.

KWMR is starting a news fund to help cover our increasing costs. If you wish to support daily West Marin news on KWMR, please consider a donation to the Fund. One of our KWMR donors has agreed to match all gifts made to the News Fund up to $5,000. If you’d like to make a contribution, please make your check out to KWMR, and send to:

“The KWMR News Fund”
P.O. Box 1262
Point Reyes, CA
94956

We’ll keep you updated on the return date of
the West Marin Report.
