Rocky Mountain Community Radio Regional Roundup

Rocky Mountain Community Radio (RMCR) is a coalition of non-commercial radio stations in Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. Member stations broadcast diverse news and music programming.

RMCR collaborates to produce news and enterprise journalism that connects our communities. In the Spring of 2022, RMCR hired a new Managing Editor and Producer to help coordinate news journalism collaboration and content distribution through our region. These Regional Roundup segments are a result of this collaboration, and are produced by Maeve Conran.
