We certainly appreciate the support we get from you. It is a affirmation to hear in person, by mail, email, and phone. We are at the point where financial support and in-kind contributions are increasingly important. Accordingly, we will recognize these financial and in-kind supporters with brief acknowledgements on-the-air, so that others will know who our new contributors are. We will also maintain a list on our SUPPORT PAGE, and hope that some day you too might join this list.

You're probably aware that we need to improve our 'reach' in Visalia. The best (most cost-effective) way for us to accomplish this goal is to replace our antenna with a new and improved antenna system. We REALLY need your financial help to get this replacement system, and we've opened a PayPal account for you to safely and easily make your donation on-line. Simply login to PayPal and click the 'Send Money' tab. Send your donation to our email address - KVLP [at] radio.fm (replace [at] with @ of course).

Concerns about land use and the future of the Southern San Joaquin Valley bubbled to the surface at the first Tulare County Land Use Public Forum. The event was co-hosted by the local Farm Bureau, Building Industry Association, and Cooperative Extension Service on March 6, 2006 in Visalia. Over 200 locals, mostly from the agribusiness and land development communities, attended the half-day event.

The keynote address, "The Moment of Opportunity", came from Carol Whiteside, founder and president of the Great Valley Center, who focused on how the South Valley might achieve economic, social, and environmental well-being.

We were there to capture this important presentation. Left-click to listen or right-click to save this mp3 audio recording. (about 12 Mbytes, so this may take a moment) An edited text version appeared in a local daily newspaper 5 days later.


While it isn't illegal (yet), the non-emergency use of a cellphone by any city representative while driving is unprofessional and unbecoming, whether driving a garbage truck or a patrol car. Call the city manager's office at 713-4512 and share how you feel about Visalia's yakety cops: just hang up and drive, Officer.

DID YOU KNOW?
Fewer than 25 percent of high school seniors in Visalia Unified School District took the SAT-I exam in 2002-2003. In the San Francisco Bay area, the overall rate was nearly 50 percent. In 2003-2004, the VUSD percentage 'zoomed' to 25.66%.
