Rotary Radio Day

What is Rotary Radio Day?

Radio Day is a great opportunity for local businesses to promote themselves with radio and newspaper advertising while also helping our community by supporting one of Spencer Rotary’s largest fundraisers!

Receive advertising while also supporing Rotary, a Spencer service club that directly supports our community in many ways!

Each year, KICD and the Spencer Reporter graciously donate air time and advertising space to our club. For a full Saturday morning, KICD personality Rhonda Wedeking welcomes other Spencer Rotarians on the air to share local interest stories and interviews. Community businesses have the opportunity to donate to our club in exchange for advertising during the radio show and in the Spencer Reporter.
