Valley Free Radio Board of Directors Meeting

Present: Tony Udell (chair), Bob Gutowski, Arjuna Griest, Shawn Smith, Charles Marchand, Tony Shannon, Preacha, Dana Prescott, Steve Cutting, Kathryn Reason, Bob Gardner (notetaker)
What’s The Scents In This?
Remember,
Valley Free Radio is a
You may think, Oh, I don’t wear cologne or perfume.
However allot of deodorants, hair products, aftershave, hand lotion, soap, etc, etc,
Things you wouldn’t normally think about, contain fragrance.
Sometimes they can linger for days.
Some folks at VFR have serious reactions to these products.
Asthma, sinus disorders repeated infections, and some learning disabilities, to mention a few, can be triggered by the chemicals used in an effort to smell “good”. We buy into the advertising, without consideration to potential health risks.
Those that oppose fragrance restrictions feel their rights are being violated, what about the violation of personal air space for the person who has sensitivities? Wearing fragrances is no different than smoking; it should remain a personal choice used in personal air space, but not at the cost of someone else’s health.
We all share the same air space at VFR.
Please keep this in mind when coming to the studio.
Alert any guests coming in as well.
