Carla Bratt, Fiddletown — I've been a watcher of PBS television stations for a long time. When I moved to the Sierra Foothills in 1992, I began watching KVIE. I am a artist, so naturally the KVIE Art Auction was of special interest to me. I watched it every year. [read more]
Noah Kameyer, Woodland — I am not someone with a whole lot of money so subscribing to cable TV or one of the many other pay TV choices was never an option. Then there is KVIE. No matter how busy I am, I always try to take time out to watch. I only have a high school diploma and for no money, KVIE has allowed me to expand my education. Thank you.
