By popular demand we'll again be welcoming WBWC alumni for a cookout and reception during homecoming weekend, Friday October 3rd., starting at 5:30p. Bring a covered dish or desert if you like, but mostly just bring you!  We're looking forward to seeing you, hearing your stories and sharing time. Also, we're still building our archive, so if you have any airchecks, old photos or keepsakes you can share with us we'd love to see!

Alumni come home to WBWC...

A quick word of thanks to all our alumni who made the trip home this past May 16th and 17th. We hope to make this part of WBWC.com a central hub of future interaction, and event announcements. Many of you have already sent in photos from our events (look for some of them in the upcoming PURSUIT alumni magazine). Along with those, We continue to  welcome archival photos and recordings to add to our 50th Anniversary archive. Send them on in* - we know that without all of you - there wouldn't be a WBWC for us to work at now!

We're looking forward to many gatherings of our unique family in the near future. Keep checking back to this page on wbwc.com for future events, updates on fellow alumni, alumni/student projects and so, so, so much more!   Soon you'll find links here to various social linking sites, including Facebook (already active, see the top left of this page), A Flikr photo pool, A professional group on Linkedin,  our ongoing presence on MySpace,  our listing on Wikipedia, and the original alumni gathering on Yahoo! Groups

If you have a story to tell, we'd be happy to set up a session for our ongoing 50th Anniversary History Moments. Behind the scenes, on-the-mic, cutting tape, getting locked out of the studio....we welcome them all. Drop us a line at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it , or our office phone line at 440-826-2145. 

My continuing thanks for your work in the past, and your support over the years to make the first 50 the landmark that it is, and the launch pad for the second 50!
