May 25, 2022 Street Level Radio

Recent Changes

Recently, Burning Dog Radio underwent a merger and name change. Street Level Radio merged with our sister station in the Philippines – and it’s been awesome. Brittany and Jael have joined the ranks and we’ve been able to meet as a whole group, have training sessions between our locations, and do remote broadcasts. Though some of these things were already happening, the goal here will be to be more of a unified front as Street Level Radio gets out there. Now Street Level Radio exists in Menomonie, River Falls, Duluth, and Cebu City! Please pray as one of our goals is to reach students and to continually point to and support Street Level Ministries.

Listener Data

An example of our listener data.

Now that we are one station and streaming online, we can get a view into who is listening. Since March, we have had listeners in the US, Philippines, Ireland, China, Russia, India, Japan, Korea, Ghana, Germany, Finland, UK, Ecuador, and Portugal. This data is available because we use a service called Radiomast that tells us based on location who and how many listeners we’ve had using the stream.

Tech-side

As you may have noticed, we have a new website. There are two players – with a Philippines-specific stream to facilitate the time difference. On the Philippines stream, you will also hear sponsor promos for each location hosting a station location, as well as some Original Philipino Music throughout the day.

Many thanks to the tech people helping out to update the technology used at all these locations. (which also includes River Falls and Duluth)

Getting Out There – and Prayer Requests

Please pray for the station at all of our locations, that we are able to successfully get out there and engage people on our campuses and cities. Along these lines, we could use prayer for our choices in merch! Thanks for all the prayer and support of the station, in general, it is greatly appreciated!

September 16, 2020 Street Level College Ministries

Getting Started

Street Level has started back up for the Fall, 2020 semester! The UW-Stout students returned to on Labor Day weekend, with classes beginning last week. Street Level welcomed returning students back to Menomonie with a backyard hangout at the Street Level House.

New Location

This fall we have a new location and time for our weekly meeting on Monday night. We will gather weekly at 5pm in The Commons (Elk Creek Room) for on-campus prayer. The plan is to read a short devotional together and spend time praying for our classmates, the campus, and other current needs.

We have also been invited to join The Blind Munchies for a weekly college dinner and bible discussion. The dinner is free and begins at 6pm. The bible discussion will follow at 7pm. All college students are welcome!

Pressing On

The rules of engagement may have changed. But our goal is the same: to build God’s kingdom through discipleship of university students at Stout.

Street Level provides opportunities for college students to serve God in through our varied ministry outlets. You can become a member of Street Level and begin serving God in our magazine, radio station, coffeehouse, or creative team. We also go on retreats, mission trips, etc. We have a discipleship house. And we are supported by a great church.

God wants you to grow in your Christian faith. Even during your time in college.

Year in Review

With the new year it has been a good time to review how far we have come as a station. There is a lot that God has done for Burning Dog Radio this last year. We are extremely thankful for all of the opportunities that we get / have gotten to serve God in this unique way. Thanks to everybody that engages with the radio ministry through service, prayer and support! It will be fun to see what the Lord has planned for us in 2019.

New Year – Same Vision

As we start the new year we are starting to see (or remember) that vision is important. We will be reviewing our mission as Burning Dog Radio and adjusting our compass as needed.
One thing we know and try to keep in mind is that we are a college radio station. We are the ONLY college station in Menomonie. With that being said, we as Burning Dog Radio exist to bring people to God by showing students that you can be a Christian AND like good music.

Please pray for us as we continue in our goal of reaching out to the students in Menomonie as well as the community.

New Year – New Ideas

Just because we have the same vision that does not mean we have to use the same methods year in and year out. Burning Dog Radio will be reviewing methods for getting out into the community and advertising this year. Along with that we will be joining forces with the Blind Munchies Coffeehouse and Word on the Street in order promote the heck out of Street Level. We are excited to be more unified with these ministries as the semester kicks off.

The sounds of the station are always in review as well – so keep us in prayer as we continue to monitor and tweak how we are programming the station. We are hoping to kick off some new segments this year, and more details on that will be coming soon!
