outside the selling area or in our building. At CSM, sellers will set up
in a designated area and buyers will mingle in a designated area, until

LATEST ON CHRS BUILDING PURCHASE…

The followimg statement was read at Radio Day By The Bay and is the
latest information we have at this time about CHRS’ future at 601 Ashby:

“As you know, we have been fundraising for the last year with the goal
of purchasing this building and land for CHRS’ permanent home. We were
supposed to buy the building and land from the new owner of KVTO as it
emerged from bankruptcy. But, KVTO has now been sold to a company who is
not inclined to sell CHRS the building and land.

We can safely report that our license to occupy KRE will be honored to
its completion until December 31st of this year. We are not being asked
to leave anytime soon and there is a possibility that we may be asked to
remain beyond that date.

So, as much as we love it here, a museum needs a permanent home. We have
already started an active search. We realize that we may be leaving a
historical place, but the reality is that we need a permanent place for
the CHRS collection, Maxwell and SOWP archives and Radio Hall of Fame.

The fund raising momentum is still with us. All of the major donors to
the KRE purchase fund have assured us that their pledges will remain in
place to purchase a permanent new home for CHRS.”

SUPER DONORS...The list keeps growing. You can be part of it! EVERY
pledge and donation means a great deal to CHRS. But it is worth noting
several pledges / donations that are really helping us to purchase a
permanent home for CHRS:
* Mike & Barbara Adams – $5,000
* Jack Bethards – $5,000
* Bert Buss – $5,000
* Elmo & Kim Giovanetti – $5,000
* Eugene & Marianne Haller – $5,000
* Steve & Janice Kushman – $5,000
* Chip Lim – $5,000
* Robert & Reina Swart – $5,000
* Verne Anderson – $10,000
* Judy Mears & Bart Lee – $10,000
* Larry & Joan Drees – $16,600
* Norm Howard Lehfeldt – $15,000
