The campus radio station, K-T-S-W, will benefit from a fundraiser this week --
a fundraiser tied to a movie premiere. Louise Armstrong explains in this Bobcat
Update.

You may have seen ads for the feature film Campus Radio on buses or around
campus. The ads are part of a promotional campaign for the movie, which was
shot--in part--here in San Marcos. In the movie, you'll see scenes of the Texas
State campus and of the square in downtown San Marcos two years ago. Campus
Radio premiered last week at the Starplex movie theater. K-T-S-W Station Manager
Jenn Kelly was an extra in the film and says the crew used the station to stage
scenes.

However, the Campus Radio promoters have taken their relationship with K-T-S-W
even further. Tomorrow a special screening at Starplex will also serve as a
fundraiser for the station's annual music festival. For every ticket sold, a
dollar will be donated to the My Radio Festival fund. K-T-S-W's Promotions
Manager says the movie promoters came up with the idea.

The Campus Radio bus will be in San Marcos until the end of the week before
embarking on a 120-city tour. [Standup] Starplex will continue to screen the
film for as long as they have an audience. For Bobcat Update I'm Louise
Armstrong.
