IBA Members To Support COVID Remembrance Day

The Independent Broadcasters Association (IBA) is proud to support COVID Remembrance Day on May 25, as a day of honor and reflection for those who have been lost to the pandemic. A special IBA members-only webinar is set for 2 pm EDT, Thursday April 29 to provide how-to instructions and outline the tools and resources that will be available to participating radio stations.

COVID Remembrance Day is being produced by Paige Nienaber and CPR Promotions, in conjunction with partners MannGroup Radio, Benztown and P1 Media Group. CPR Promotions will provide radio stations with multiple ideas for the day. COVID Remembrance Day is an opportunity for stations to continue to build on their campaigns to get the best, most current information on local vaccine availability and scheduling to their audiences.

Neinaber, who will host the webinar, said, “On COVID Remembrance Day participating stations and their listeners can reflect on the events of the past year, honor and give tribute to the victims, heroes, and people in their communities who have stepped up and been a part of the response effort. We hope every radio station in America will join us.”

“This is a day for radio stations, clusters, and groups to pause and engage with their audiences in remembering those who have been lost since the pandemic hit in 2020, and those that have served as front line workers in this battle…” said Ron Stone, President of the IBA and Chief Executive Officer of Adams Radio Group. “I encourage all IBA member stations to participate in this day of remembrance for those who were lost to the pandemic. Paige has put together a terrific webinar to help guide IBA members through the process.”

Stations that want to participate in COVID Remembrance Day as an IBA member and take advantage of the members-only webinar, and all the other benefits of IBA membership, can join prior to April 29 at iba.media.
