NCRA Radio Awards of Excellence entry

Nikky's First Show
Aired: Jan 20, 2008 on CFRU 93.3, 1hr
Equine Sport Focused, Magazine Style Show

Ontario's Horse Talk Radio -- for full fledged equine professionals or closet horse enthusiasts! With an exciting expert guest interview each week, and regular features including: Ask Equine Guelph, Horse News, Western Round Up, Equine Events Listings, Standardbred Showcase, Hors-tory, HorseLife and Horse of the Week stories submitted by listeners to hoofbeats.radio@gmail.com

This 10 minute excerpt includes the voice of our CFRU tech guru as the only male! It is drawn from the program that marks the invention of Horsin' Around, a regular feature from Hoofbeats! now-13yr-old reporter. We met Nikky through a Horse of the Week submission from her mom, Heather. E-mail hoofbeats.radio@gmail.com for a full show mp3, to learn how to groom a horse and the different paces of horses...

Producer bio:

Jessica sat on a horse at 2 for "love at first ride." A full-fledged 'barn-rat' at 7 - mucking stalls/mooching rides constantly, she e v e n t u a l l y switched focus and graduated from Seneca in Broadcast Journalism. She works at MuchMusic, and gets a hands-on horse-fix as an occasional braider.
