BRATTLEBORO-Thank you for the great coverage of WOOL-FM in Bellows Falls. I've been a DJ on WOOL since I moved up here 20 years ago, hosting After Hours on Sundays from 8 to 10 p.m., where I interview local and international musicians and play their music.
I was trained by Nancy Stefanik and have been having a great time doing the show ever since. I wanted to do radio in college but all of the slots were filled, so this is a late-in-life fulfillment of a wish.
I appreciate the efforts of Gary Smith, Tony Elliot, and so many other members of a great group of people who are continually working to improve the station.
We continue to value the public's support of community radio, which is increasingly important, especially in rural areas, as the federal government pulls funds from public media.
