An Introduction from Brian Sickora
As
the new President and CEO of WSKG Public Broadcasting, I
am delighted to be the newest member of the talented WSKG team
and equally as excited about being your new neighbor. After
stints in Oregon, Florida and most recently Washington DC at
the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, it feels good to be
nestled in the rolling hills of Southern New York which remind
me of my home in Central Pennsylvania.
What drew
me to WSKG is that both the region and station are poised for
great success. With your financial support, WSKG has just completed
its conversion to digital signal transmission. This provides
opportunities to develop and deliver content and services that
address critical education and economic development needs.
The staff at WSKG is passionate about changing lives through
public service media, from providing engaging educational video
streaming content to thousands of children daily to helping
just one parent proudly obtain a GED.
We believe
that our role in the community is to help connect neighbors
to address local issues within and across community and town
boundaries. Through its broadcast reach, WSKG can help harness
the collective experience, knowledge and resources to address
important issues to all. You will hear more in the near future
about our new initiative that will link neighbors, teachers,
students and community leaders to facilitate the discussion
of important issues.
So, I look
forward to serving you in my new role and especially to meeting
you. And on behalf of the communities we serve, I thank you
for your generous support. For each gift that WSKG receives
is truly a gift - not to, but through WSKG - to meet the needs
of your local community.
Warm regards,
Brian
WSKG
