SANTA BARBARA—On February 2nd, 2009, KCSB 91.9 FM will resume its annual fund drive, which was suspended due to the Tea Fire disaster. On Thursday, November 13th, the second night of KCSB’s drive, the station shifted from on-air fundraising appeals to coverage of fire evacuations, warnings, road closures, and other vital emergency information. The very next day, KCSB’s student leadership voted to reschedule the entire campaign, which will now run from February 2nd into the morning of Feb. 9th.
