 On July 1st, 2007, the annual fireworks show put on by the Osoyoos Fireworks Committee had something new and exciting in store for the visitors and residents watching from Gyro beach and all around Osoyoos Lake.
This year, the fireworks show had been set to music. It was arranged by the Master Factory Studio here in town, including a performance by Coyote Crossing. CIRO had recently recieved approval from Industry Canada to begin broadcasting, and we were pleased to help the fireworks team put on a great show by making sure people around town could tune in to the music on 106.5 FM.
If you're organizing a local event, or have an interesting community or tourism related tale to tell, we'd love to hear from you. You can contact Keith Calder, CIRO program director, at kcalder@osoyoos.ca, or by calling at (250) 495-3366. extension 204.
