_arry Joe Taylor
Music Festival, a Tarleton
student favorite, may soon
have a counterpart for the fall
semester with Adam Carillo's
.abor Day at the Lake music
festival. The second annua
blowout event, held at Super C
.ake, is showing vast potential
for growth in popularity and
attendance numbers in the
upcoming years.
Students and
community members are
already flocking in large
numbers for the three-
day Labor Day celebration
featuring motor cross
competitions, Professional
Bull Ridings and an impressive
lineup of Texas country
singers.
In addition to the
concerts, on both the main
and acoustic stages, this year
Carillo, retired PBR bull rider,
added a barbeque cook-off;
horseshoes, washers and
volleyball tournaments;
wakeboarding; and various
booths and attractions.
The atmosphere was
electric as dusk approached,
bringing much relief from
the heat, to the sounds of
throbbing music on stage,
mouth-watering scents of fair
foods and motor cross bikes
zipping in the background.
Mark McKinney,
Texas county artist, stated
onstage during his Sunday
night performance, "I think
this is gonna be one of the
coolest annual parties in the
'freakiri state of Texas."
This year's line up
included Larry joe Taylor, Kyle
Bennett Band, No Justice,
Mark McKinney, Deryl Dodd
and many other favorites.

KTRI 90.5 FM announces new format
STEPHENVILLE - Tarleton State
University announced that its
new station, KTRL 90.5, will
broadcast a new public radio
format, including National
'ublic Radio news, classical
and jazz music. The new
format includes the award-
winning NPR news shows
Morning Edition and All Things
Considered.
KTRL 90.5 broadcasts
these programs to a 10-county
area of the Cross Timbers,
many of whom were not able
to pick up another public
radio signal and will depend
upon KTRL to bring them the
public radio news and music
programs that many people
already receive in other parts
of Texas
"This is the first
time that most people in our
coverage area will be able to
pick up NPR, classical and jazz
over the radio. Tarleton's been
trying for years to make this
happen and it's finally here,"
said KTRL General Manager Eric
Truax.
Other new programs
include the popular NPR
interview show Fresh Air with
host Terry Gross weekdays
at 6 p.m. and NPR's Car Talk
Saturdays at 9 a.m. KTRL
also offers classical music
programming daily from 9
a.m. to 2 p.m., with jazz in the
afternoon from 2 p.m. to 4
p.m.
Many of the programs
that KTRL is broadcasting
will be rebroadcast from
Texas A&M's KAMU-FM in
College Station through a
new agreement between
Tarleton and Texas A&M
University in College Station.
KAMU consulted with Tarleton
administration 10 years ago
when Tarleton was exploring
the establishment of a public
radio station for the Cross
Timbers.
"This is a natural
partnership, and gives listeners
in the Cross Timbers the great
programming that Bryan/
College Station and other areas
in Texas have enjoyed for a
long time," Truax said.
KTRL offers both
employment and internship
positions to students from
Tarleton State University,
especially those in the
Communication Studies
department. They are
responsible for much of the
behind-the-scenes production
work and their voices will also
occasionally be heard on the
air along with the voices of
announcers and hosts from
KAMU-FM.
KTRL 90.5 FM is a
relatively new frequency in the
Cross Timbers. The previous
owner of the frequency
donated it to Tarleton State
University in 2009 after running
an Adult Contemporary music
format for nearly a year.
For the past eight months,
KTRL has been running an
eclectic mix of folk, bluegrass,
Americana and rock music.
The complete program
schedule is available at www.
ktrl.fm.
