The Boys Town Radio Station, better known as KRBT, got its start on January 20, 1982. The first DJ was Bob Papa. The 83 school year marked the first an- niversary for KRBT. There were many people involved with the station in 82-83, both students and adults. The original idea to start the sta- tion came from Father Kelly. The money to go ahead with the station was donated in the memory of Patrick Norton, a nephew of Father Flanagan's. The sta- tion serves many purposes for the Boys Town campus. The main purpose is to provide entertainment for BT students that is created by other BT students. Secondly, it gives a BT student a chance to get a firsthand look at the inside of radio broadcasting. Some ofthe students that worked at KRBT during 82 and 83 were Jim Gill, Kasey Duncan, Roger Brady, Jim Camerlinck, Jim Dornacher, Jerry Foster, and many others. The adult advisers were: Father Kelly, station manager, Bill Jackson CKFAB DJJ, our teacher , and later on, Rever- end Tsapelas.
