OVERLAND PARK, Kan.– For the third consecutive year Overland Park, Kan.-based Bott Radio Network (BRN) will broadcast from the Missouri Baptist Convention’s (MBC) annual meeting.
Bott personalities Harold Hendrick, a member of First Baptist Church, Ferguson, and a host of “Encounter” on BRN’s St. Louis affiliate KCIV-AM; and Eben Fowler, station manager of BRN’s KCCV-AM/FM Radio in Kansas City, will interview various guests of the convention as well as MBC leaders. A new feature to this year’s Bott broadcasts will be interviews with randomly selected messengers.
“We’d like to do 60- to 90-second interviews with people attending the annual meeting in order to capture the flavor of event,” said Dick Bott, BRN president.
Interviews with guests and MBC leaders will be taped Oct. 24-26 (Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday) at the annual meeting for broadcast from 2-2:30 p.m., each of those days on all Bott stations throughout Missouri. The interviews with messengers will be taped and broadcast intermittently throughout all three days between 9:30 a.m. and 5 p.m., on all BRN Missouri stations as well.

The interviews will be conducted from BRN’s broadcast venue located in the main exhibit hall at Second Baptist Church, Springfield. BRN’s Springfield/Branson affiliate, KSCV (90.1 FM), will provide logistical and technical support for the broadcasts. Messengers are welcome to come by to watch and listen.
