About WOMR
Our Purpose
  • to operate a nonprofit, non-commercial educational radio station in Provincetown for the benefit of the residents of and visitors to Cape Cod.
  • to provide a broadcast service to the Cape which is entertaining, informative and educational; to encourage participation by members of Cape communities in the management of the station and in the production of radio programs; to provide an outlet for Cape codders to present educational, artistic and informative programs.
  • to provide air time and facilities to community members and groups; to provide program coverage of local news, educational and social events; to present cultural and ethnic programs to the local audience and to present instructional programming related to marine life and conservation interests


Involving the community in our programming is our mission and we invite anyone to become part of WOMR. If you have an idea for a music or spoken word program send it to WOMR's Programming Committee.

History of WOMR

 

In 1976 a small band of radio visionaries was inspired to create a community radio station in Provincetown. It took several years for them to realize their dream, but finally WOMR (OuterMost community Radio) went on the air on March 21st 1982 with 1000 watts at a frequency of 91.9 FM. In November of 1995, WOMR moved to 92.1 FM in order to raise power to 6000 watts thus reaching a much wider audience on Cape Cod and the South Shore. To improve our signal from Orleans to Hyannis, we have installed a second transmitter in Orleans which  broadcasts our signal at 91.3 FM.

Over the years hundreds of people have contributed their time and talents to create WOMR's diverse and special programming. There are very few, if any, radio stations like WOMR in the country. We are a non-profit organization, not  affiliated with any educational institution, and derive our financial support from listeners, businesses and grant making organizations like the Massachusetts Cultural Council

Involving the community in our programming is our mission and we invite anyone to become part of WOMR. If you have an idea for a music or spoken word program send it to WOMR's Programming Committee:

508-487-2619 or 800-921-WOMR

If community radio is something of value to you, support WOMR by becoming a member for as little as $50 annually.


Business owners:
take advantage of WOMR's low underwriting rates to spread the word about your business and your support for community radio.
