Dear Member,
   I’m looking forward to a great month of fantastic programming with you. As usual, Stan and Robin have brought us the best national programming, complemented by unusual programming from independent producers. We often hear that this mix of programming makes KRCB Television and Radio the best in public broadcasting in the Bay Area.

   The additional really unique element in our radio programming is an incredible team of volunteer hosts. Most of what you hear in the evenings and on the weekends are programs that have been developed by individuals who are passionate about local public radio. They come in week after week (in many cases, year after year!) to share that passion with you. The eclectic mix of music they share is often complemented by bits of “insider” information about the singer, the band or the songwriter.     Whatever you tune in for—jazz, roots, classical, Sonoma Spotlight, and so much more—know that KRCB’s volunteer programmers are dedicated to bringing you the best of the genre.  Give them a shout and let them know how much you appreciate everything they do for KRCB and the community.

Sincerely,

   April is, of course, our super duper Travel and Leisure Auction, as is clearly apparent from this Open Air. Mariah and her team have scoured the globe for great items for your bidding. As you see, you can view items on line now, and online bidding will be open on April 16.
   This auction is an important source of income for KRCB. Hundreds of volunteers and donors make this great event possible. Because so many items are available for online bidding, please send the word of the auction to your friends and family across the country. We are particularly reaching out to Canada this time ’round so send messages in that direction, too! Also, share your own great travel adventures at krcb.org/traveltalk, where you can upload your photos and videos as well.
   Have a great vacation or trip and support your PBS & NPR station at the same time.

Sincerely,

Nancy Dobbs, President and CEO
