<html><body>Really, Jane? Your outreach fell short. Where's my invitation? I'm one of the founding programmers. As was Sister Yasmin. Els Cooperrider's show was invaluable to the County those years she was on the air. Have you made any attempt to contact her? --beth bosk <br /><br /><blockquote><br />----- Original Message -----<br /><div style="width:500px;background:rgb(228,228,228);"><div style="font-weight:bold;">From:</div> "Jane Futcher" <janefutcher@me.com></div><br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">To:</div><kzyxtalk@lists.mcn.org><br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">Cc:</div><br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">Sent:</div>Mon, 29 Sep 2014 09:42:26 -0700<br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">Subject:</div>[Kzyxtalk] Correcting John Sakowicz<br /><br /><br />
There are many points I'd like to respond to in John Sakowicz's most recent assault on KZYX, but let me correct two points he makes that are absolutely wrong:<br />
1) The KZYX birthday party is NOT a fundraiser. Admission is $5. We kept the admission low to be sure everyone who wanted to come was able to afford a ticket. Food and microbrews are extra, but we will be lucky to break even on the event because of the costs involved.<br />
2) Meg Courtney and I, as KZYX board members, are spearheading and organizing the event. We both felt deeply that this station milestone was too important for our community not to celebrate. The event is far from an "ego trip" for John Coate and Mary Aigner. The focus of everyone involved in putting on the event is making the 25th birthday a fantastic party that honors everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, who has been a programmer, staff, board member, volunteer, donor, listener or member over the years. <br /><br />
We hope everyone who cares about the station will join us at the Boonville Fairgrounds October 11 to celebrate the station's remarkable creation and survival, through thick and thin, for 25 years.<br /><br />
Sincerely,<br />
Jane Futcher<br />
