Radio Camp is a week-long, summer enrichment day camp for middle school students interested in technology, journalism, and the exciting world of radio! All activities are led by 88.5 WFDD staff members.
Over the week, students learn the basics of audio recording in the studio and "in the field;" how to conduct an interview; how to edit sound on computers into a radio news story; and the other skills needed to write, record, edit, and create stories for the radio.
