An inspirational spot from the February 2013 issue of our newsletter, The Nome Static:
Live simply, so others can simply live.

Congrats to the news crew!
It’s an exciting time for our mission: our news team is the recipient of two highly-coveted awards from the Alaska Broadcasters Association (ABA)!
The ABA Goldie Awards recognize excellence in radio and TV broadcasting across the state of Alaska, and in November, the organization honored KNOM news with awards in the categories “Service to Children” and “Service to Community.”
Both awards specifically recognize news shows produced by KNOM’s former volunteer public affairs director, Matthew Smith, who served our mission from 2010 through earlier this year. Winning the awards were Matthew’s news feature on the personal stories of Nome 8th graders and his radio spots on a mysterious disease that affected some seals in Alaskan waters this year. (The marine mammals have a special place in the subsistence lifestyle that is at the heart of our region’s traditional culture, making Matthew’s reporting not just timely but, also, vitally important.)
We share these latest awards with you: congratulations, and thanks so much for making possible the crucially-needed reporting that KNOM news does every day. Holding our latest Goldies, above, are our current news volunteers – Margaret DeMaioribus and Eva DeLappe – whose work, thanks to you, continues the standards of excellence our mission has maintained for more than 40 years. To hear one of Matt’s award-winning programs, head on over to our news page.
Let us live…
Our inspirational spot for the week:
Let us live in such a way that when we die, our love will survive and continue to grow.
Summercise comes to KNOM, and a new challenge pledge for our studio construction

The days grow longer and, slowly, the temperatures are rising! The remainders of ice and snow are melting away into the ponds and streams.
Alongside the warmth of summer, Nome’s Summercise has returned.
