Radio Tierra 2019
2019 was an exciting year for Radio Tierra.
Thanks to the continuing support of all the community memebers in the Gorge. Radio Tierra turned 15. And to help celebrate we were thankful to be able to host our very first live Radio-Thon at the Columbia Center for the Arts.
Radio Tierra was created in April of 2009, Earth Day to be exact. Through hard work and perseverance many community members worked tirelessly to get Radio Tierra off the ground. Walking door to door to community members and businesses, looking for volunteers and asking for donations to buy equipment. Many hours were put into acquiring training to instal, maintain and run community radio station. In 2004 Radio Tierra received its license to operate as a low-powered FM community radio station.
Since it’s creation Radio Tierra and its volunteers have strived to educate and entertain our community with bilingual programing and toe tapping entertainment.
And if turning 15 wasn’t enough, we had the great opportunity to co-sponsor a Families In the Park Event with Hood River County Community Ed. Stay tuned for Radio Tierra’s Families in the Park day 2020.
All Is Science
And now there’s three.
The third Reyes sister joins the Radio Tierra family with her new show All Is Science. “On all is science you will learn about everything science, space and the world around us”. Like Maestra Alexa, All Is Science is a pre-recorded show that airs through out the day, 7 days a week.
Allison Reyes is 9 years old. Is a student at Mid Valley Elementary. Her favorite things are space, science, music, and art.

The Hood River County Library Foundation invites you
Party in the library!
The Hood River County Library Foundation invites you to the Hood River Library on Saturday, March 10 from 6:00 to 9:00 pm for their annual fundraiser, A Feast of Words. Enjoy delicious food, decadent desserts, beverages from Viento Wines, Thunder Island Brewing and Dog River Coffee, and live music while bidding on silent and live auctions.
Music will be provided by The Quiet American. Sponsors include Insitu, Michael & Angela Schock, Haynie DMD @HR Dental, Columbia State Bank, Duckwall Fruit, Gorge Networks, Sheppard’s, Best Western PLUS Hood River Inn, Farm Stand in the Gorge, Gorge-Us Photography, and Little Shredders Dental.
The Library Foundation aims to raise $30,000 this year, which will be used to support and improve library services in the communities of Cascade Locks and Odell. In Cascade Locks, funds will help develop the Cascade Locks Branch at its new location in the Cascade Locks Elementary School, a space that is almost three times larger and will feature a defined kids, teen and adult area. There will also be a large area to hold library programs, complete with a home theater system for showing movies and hosting presentations. In addition, funds will also help purchase technology, new furniture and shelving units for the space.
In Odell, the District is working to provide regular library service to Odell, a community that currently does not have a physical library branch. Funds raised at the Feast of Words will help fund programs for all ages, technology access and a weekly bookmobile in Odell.
Tickets are $25 each and are available at any library branch, Volcanic Bottle Shoppe, Waucoma Bookstore and at the door day of the event.
