Bayshore Broadcasting Corp will be launching a new FM repeater tower in Tobermory on November 23.

The tower is located by Warner Bay Road, adjacent to the Tobermory dump.

It will be known as CFPS 91.9FM, The Bruce. Also operating from the same tower will be the Tobermory Information Station, CIBP, at 103.7FM.

The Tobermory Information Station will offer a loop broadcast of local information, organized and provided by the Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula. It will serve many different functions.

Typically, it will offer information about everything from local events and festivals to road closures and service interruptions. In emergencies, it will offer whatever information is needed about forest fires, tornadoes, ice storms etc. It is suggested that all Tobermory residents keep a battery powered radio on hand so that they can get emergency information when the telephone systems are down.
