Claire is a local teacher who first became involved with Peach City Radio as part of a project to introduce the medium of radio to her grade 1 - 5 students.

The project may be over for now, but Claire's enthusiasm for community radio is still going strong.

Nadia’s first radio was a pastel coloured SHARP brand radio cassette recorder. She loved recording the top 6 at 6 pm on CFTR and soon became enamoured in dual tape deck systems. She graduated to a Panasonic boombox that was her companion through highschool and university years, mainly tuned to CFNY102.1 and Q107. Her first part time job delivering local newspapers funded her first five disc CD player. Numerous mix tapes, walkmans, discmans, a napster profile, ipods, itunes, apple music, live concerts and many many radio stations have entered her life. It was obvious she’d eventually find a role with CFUZ.

Growing up in border town Ridgeway, Ontario, the only radio stations on the dial were from Buffalo, NY. So weather was expressed in Fahrenheit and Valery’s love was expressed through the mixed tape. Her first radio show was an eighth-grade assignment and therefore heavy on the Smashing Pumpkins. A singer/composer with a love for piano, recording, and radio, Val’s music career tapped into broadcasters indie to international, where performing live on air added to her interest in getting involved. After years of working at Toronto film/TV/music production studios, Val landed in Penticton in 2020 as a communications lead. She’s thrilled to connect with community through the CFUZ airwaves!
