Local Radio Station Wins Big Award

Country 90.5 and 106.3 Jet FM (Vista Radio) have been awarded with the Station Promotion Award by the Ontario Association of Broadcasters.

At the association’s annual conference and award ceremony Thursday, which celebrates the best station-led promotions across Ontario, Vista Radio was honoured for its “Big Camp Adventure” campaign.

The initiative included a competition between 106.3 Jet FM morning host Mike Monaghan and Country 90.5 FM morning host Kevin Oschefski, designed to raise funds for the YMCA’s “Fill the Bus” campaign in partnership with the Rotary Club of North Bay.

The campaign’s aim was to ensure financial constraints wouldn’t prevent local children from enjoying YMCA camps.
