Finger Lakes Radio Group was established in 2000 to serve the needs of listeners and advertisers in the central Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. Priding themselves in being “hyper-local,” Finger Lakes Radio Group is comprised of seven radio stations airing on 13 AM and FM signals and has become a staple for being the primary source for local news and entertainment in area households. In addition to providing a variety of news and music formats that target various ages and demographics throughout the Finger Lakes, FLRG also consists of a marketing department that specializes in Digital Media and includes an Event Marketing and Broadcast Messaging team that helps to work with local businesses to grow their messaging and reach.
During the Chamber’s networking event, attendees were able to tour the studios and go behind the scenes and visit each of the stations. A unique and first experience for many, attendees were also given the opportunity to participate in on-air interviews with the various radio station personalities and experience live broadcasting first-hand. Refreshments and prize package giveaways were also featured. Please visit the Chamber’s website or Facebook page for additional photos.
