FPREN & Brevard Emergency
Operations Center
Since 2006, WEFS and the Brevard County Board of
Commissioners have had an agreement for WEFS to
extend the services of the Brevard County Office of
Emergency Management’s Emergency Operations
Center (EOC) by broadcasting information from the
EOC and the new Florida Public Radio Emergency
Network (FPREN) during times of emergency. This
will give Brevard County residents vital emergency
messages through all of its outlets - over-the-air
broadcast, cable transmission, and Direct/Dish
satellite TV services.
Graduation
Each spring and fall WEFS is proud to
broadcast the commencement
ceremonies of Eastern Florida State
College, allowing families and friends
unable to attend the chance to view the
ceremony and share in a special moment
for the EFSC graduates, as they celebrate
their accomplishments. This also
provides local businesses a glimpse at
the newly-trained work force of potential
employees.
