Listen in to the Jim Reeves Special on Tuesday 3 August at 10.00pm on 3TFM
On the 31 July 1964 country music legend Jim Reeves was killed in a plane crash,he was only 40 years old. This saturday which is 31 July it will be the the 46 th anniversary of his death. We here at 3TFM Community Radio are going to be paying tribute to the fantastic legacy of music he left behind.
On Tuesday 3 Aug we will be presenting a Jim Reeves special on the 3TFM country show. The show is being broadcast from 10.00pm till midnight,so if your a Jim Reeves fan be sure to tune in. We will be playing a fantastic collection of all his songs, it was very difficult to make up the playlist for the show,because every record he made was so special, 2 hours is not really long enough to play them all. Part of the show includes Jim himself telling his life story,and that is very interesting to say the least.
So listen in on Tuesday 3 Aug 2010 for our Jim Reeves special 10.00pm till midnight only on 3TFM Community Radio.

What’s On This Week?
Landscaping the CCI Way
Working in the care sector can take on various guises and when I met Niall McShannon, Project Manager and Social Worker of CCI, I thought his role was to provide care facilities for the trainees. How wrong I was as the work they carry out is mainly related to landscaping and woodwork skills. CCI's first project was the Wallace Memorial Garden, off Wellgate, in Lanark. After 7 years, it still looks robust and has bedded into its surroundings well.

What’s On This Week?
The Making of a Festival
People always say to me “how do you set up a festival?”. So, I thought, the best way to answer that question would beto meet the people at the ‘coal face’ so to speak. Joanne Mcadams and myself spent a full weekend interviewing for example founder member of the Wickerman Festival, Syd Ambrose, who tells how the festival came about and how it has successfully grown over the past nine years from a small Community Youth Group idea to its current standing in the Scottish festival scene. You will also hear other exclusive interviews with roadies, lighting and DJ’s.

Sports Students Aim High
Sometimes, when you speak to people about sports, they tend
to enquire about the so called popular sports such as football and rugby
but a trip to Kilmarnock College Centre for Sports Excellence revealed that most of the students had interests in far wider sports such as tennis,
badminton, karate and netball to name a few.
As part of the regular features on adults gaining support for employment and education, I dropped into a local Wise Group project called Look Ahead to meet some of the trainees involved in the project. Over the coming weeks, I will be featuring four interviews with the trainees talking about their life and careers so far and how they are overcoming personal difficulties on the path back to possible education and employment. This weeks interview is with a former WRAF and electronics worker now hoping to use the skills gained on the project to further her opportunities. A truly inspirational interview
No Job Centre Plus Vacancies this week due to holidays,
but it will return next week.
Watch out for a features on Ydance and LAGTA coming soon.
