Sonoma County, a dynamic county combining agriculture and industry, city and country creating unique and varied challenges for its citizens join us as we present some of the information and services provided by the county of Sonoma to help us as we move into the 21st century. Welcome

00:01:28.150 - 00:01:46.430

to Sonoma County in the 90s with your host Dana Jericho and Dina Lash. Welcome to Sonoma County in the nineties. I'm Gina Lash and on this edition of Sonoma County in the nineties we're going to talk about holiday of sharing with the holidays approaching. We're fortunate

00:01:46.440 - 00:02:00.830

people who are really going to make a contribution to our county. We have with us today, Brett Harris K C S T Loras lot K C S D. Andrej Cinema County probation Department. Welcome to all of you. Thank you. It's kind of exciting to hear about

00:02:00.830 - 00:02:13.330

what goes on before the holidays and how people like yourselves can make a big contribution to the community at large. So let's talk a little bit about what you, all of you are going to be doing with the approaching holidays and Brett, let's talk a little

00:02:13.330 - 00:02:30.360

bit about Secret santa. Do you want to tell us a little bit about that and your involvement? Sure. Secret santa started about six years ago. Um Lady was at our radio station named linda Fox and linda came up with this idea of what if we let

00:02:30.360 - 00:02:42.050

the listeners tell us who's out there. That's in need. These are the people that were missed by government programs or just got overlooked or maybe just didn't want to be a part of the whole thing. We went out and asked their neighbors to write us letters

00:02:42.050 - 00:02:55.170

telling about them and then we would bring christmas to them and that's what we started doing and it's gone for six years now. And the number of letters we get every year is phenomenal and it's just a wonderful program. That's really nice laura. What's your involvement

00:02:55.170 - 00:03:11.550

with Secret santa? Well, I started about three years ago as a volunteer coordinator of, of the program. I'm pretty much, uh, secret santa. I guess you say I'm the head out there. I am secret santa. Yes, exactly, Exactly. And um, I got into the program because

00:03:11.550 - 00:03:26.460

I really wanted to do something on a volunteer level to, to contribute to the community. And what I love about the program with K. C. S. T. Is that we don't have any rules. We don't have any restraints. Um, a person doesn't have to quote, qualify

00:03:26.500 - 00:03:40.360

to be a recipient of a secret santa. That's interesting because that's a little bit different than some of the other programs going around the county. So it fills in a gap in a sense. And Ray, what do you do for the county when you're not doing

00:03:40.360 - 00:03:58.603

fundraising or working with toys? Okay. And why don't you tell us a little bit about what you do with the Toy drive for the Sonoma county probation department. Okay. Well, um, Sonoma County probation department as a toy drive every year and it provides Children of probation

00:03:58.603 - 00:04:13.603

years who are in rehab or working to make their family better and become productive citizens of society um, who don't really get a christmas, They don't have enough money to purchase toys for their kids. We get list and go ahead and purchase toys for the kids

00:04:13.613 - 00:04:29.046

and that way they can have a christmas. We also get a lot of victim witness Children who have been sexually molested or you know, abused by their parents who we go out and we get them presents for christmas. What is the history on this toy drive?

00:04:29.046 - 00:04:42.706

How did it get started? How long has it been going on? It was started in 1989 by a group of four people. Um, larry and tina Hornell wiki and Caroline Doty the world probation officers and they approached our adult division director Paula bolero with the idea

00:04:42.716 - 00:05:00.720

of providing give to the Children of the, you know, the parents that were really, really hard to um hard up to get money for it. So, um, nevertheless, he said yes and it was started that first year, we had 100 and 62 Children this year. We

00:05:00.720 - 00:05:15.960

expect probably 400 Children. Each child gets approximately 4 to 5 times a piece. That's really phenomenal. Great thing makes you feel very, very good. We'll talk a little bit about how you get the money to buy the toys and things like that later Brett Secret santa.

00:05:15.960 - 00:05:31.890

Could you explain exactly what it is? So our viewers can have an idea of how they might get involved. What happens is we ask on the radio or in other ways different community service organizations, for people to send us letters about their neighbors. I brought some,

00:05:33.470 - 00:05:49.310

this is, this is a binder full. We've got bunches of binders of these and they literally will send us, um, there's one now a handwritten letter and I can't show it to you because that's the way we do the program. They tell us who that person

00:05:49.310 - 00:06:03.270

is in their community, that's in need, what they've done to, to become whatever the situation is. Um, and to read the letters that makes it easier to understand and what it is that they want then what we do is we have a whole staff of people

00:06:03.270 - 00:06:18.780

who rewrite the letters by taking out the names and any reference to anything that might tell who these people are, where they live because that's not where all about. We read the letters then on the radio and listeners will call up and say, uh, maybe a

00:06:18.780 - 00:06:31.210

kid wants some, the parent would like, um, I don't know gloves, that's all they really want or they want a tricycle because of whatever reason they can't afford to give it to them and what our listeners will do is say that letter moved me and in

00:06:31.210 - 00:06:43.210

some cases, I mean we have listeners in tears calling up because the letters of that moving and they'll say that that letter moved me so much. I'll buy the tricycle and then we hook, we bring the tricycle in. We get all the people together. And then

00:06:43.210 - 00:06:56.140

the really great part. And this is Laura's thing, um, is we deliver them. We don't just, you know, we actually go to these houses. We show up with big bags of food like from Fiesta market who ken silver has helped us out for years. And um,

00:06:56.150 - 00:07:09.820

we show up with food and presents and christmas trees and they're all brand new. Nothing is used. And we bring it right to the home bang right there and they don't know what's coming now Laura, he said, you actually bring the gifts to the people. Do

00:07:09.820 - 00:07:23.070

the donors come with you? Well, we have a couple of different ways of handling it. If we have a donor who is willing to make a face to face delivery to a home, we give them instructions how to do that and let them do that. A

00:07:23.070 - 00:07:39.150

big part of the program is the good feelings that are, are reaped by the donors. Um, if they're unwilling to do that or can't do it for some reason, then we have a group of volunteers who will do the deliver Also people at the radio station

00:07:39.160 - 00:07:53.720

do deliveries as well. Well, the thing that I'm trying to understand is that, let's say that a neighbor sends in a letter about a family but the family doesn't necessarily know that someone wrote in about them. So when you bring the gifts, are these people in

00:07:53.720 - 00:08:11.110

complete surprise most of the time? They are. Really? Oh absolutely. It's a wonderful feeling. My husband and I due each year about 12 to 20 deliveries ourselves just to make sure that you know things are going the way we want them to go and tell our

00:08:11.110 - 00:08:29.020

story. This is a great story, what makes this thing happen. Were reluctant at times to send our listeners out on deliveries where we can't exactly establish the address. So um year before last we loaded up the K. C. S. T. Van and did all of the

00:08:29.030 - 00:08:45.170

outskirt deliveries and one of them was to place in Greenville and we're driving and driving and driving along the river thought we'd never get there. And we find finally the address and a mailbox and we drive into this farm farmyard and everything is completely black barking

00:08:45.170 - 00:08:57.800

dogs. A couple of guys come up to the car and you know we're kind of nervous and and we said well you know we're from K. Z. S. T. And we're looking for this so and such and such family and so they pointed to virtually a

00:08:57.800 - 00:09:15.360

cabin at the back of the of the property. So we drove back there and my husband said well there's no one there and all of a sudden the curtain moved a little bit and we saw a candlelight flickering in the window. And we pulled up a

00:09:15.360 - 00:09:26.560

little closer and I said well there is someone in there. I just saw the light in the window and the door opened and this little boy about three years old came out and he saw the logo on the side of the truck and he said mom,

00:09:26.560 - 00:09:40.550

it's secret santa. Yeah. And so we got out of the car and we had bags and bags for this family of toys and clothes. And so the mom came out and there was a father, it was a very young family with a young couple with a

00:09:40.550 - 00:09:57.040

three year old boy and I said, gosh, why is it dark? And she said well you know, we just moved here and the landlord didn't tell us that everything is running electricity including the water. And the P ginny had you know, sorry, P Jeannie but they

00:09:57.040 - 00:10:14.210

had cut off their power about four weeks earlier, you know. And so they had no refrigeration, no lighting, no running water, although they're living in a home in, you know, the Affluence Sonoma County. And so we arranged to have their um P Jeannie turned back on

00:10:14.210 - 00:10:27.800

and and jump through some hoops and on christmas eve at about 11 30 P. Ginny clicked their power back on. So that was a wonderful story, which is also thanks to PG and e for for you know those people that got up on christmas eve. That

00:10:27.800 - 00:10:40.180

was a very special. Yes, it really was. That's what secret Sandy is. Everybody gets so involved and it's real people touching, real people. It is, it's, you know, it's interesting because last month I did a show on holidays sharing. That was so different because people had

00:10:40.180 - 00:10:53.720

to apply to be part of the program and this is really, really different. And it also gives people that are donating a chance to actual get involved with the community to see where their donation goes. There is a program by the way just to let you

00:10:53.720 - 00:11:08.270

know that I'll share with you later called S. O. S. Season of sharing where they do actually help people to pay those kinds of bills PG and whatever. So, um, that is interesting that we need to make a matrix of all the different programs and you

00:11:08.270 - 00:11:23.490

know, let people know what's going on. Let's talk a little bit about your program. This is specifically through the probate. That is correct. Where do you get the money to buy the toys? Well, we start off with a raffle, we have a raffle coordinator steve Concilio

00:11:23.630 - 00:11:39.550

and community donates all the prizes and we get everything from, you know, like this year we had a night mission in, we have dinners for two, you know, here and there, all the local restaurants. We even reached as far as san Francisco and san Jose this

00:11:39.550 - 00:11:54.580

year. Yes, we got tickets to that. It's like two marine world is just a whole bunch of prizes and we sell raffle tickets throughout our county complexes and this year I'm very proud to say we broke the record and we raised almost $1800 in the raffle

00:11:54.590 - 00:12:11.960

alone. So that is wonderful. We also get a lot of contributions from the same county Sheriff's Association and Power, which is then arose the police Department and we get a lot of donations from them that enables us to purchase toys for these Children. So basically you're

00:12:11.960 - 00:12:26.650

not looking for people to donate toys. You use the money from the raffle. No, we also know we are in need of toys used in good condition or just or new. We're always in need of toys. Especially this year we're looking to break our record again

00:12:26.810 - 00:12:41.730

and top 400 Children. We've already spent probably 1500 on new toys. And we have the additional money from the raffle. But I know there's gonna be a lot more need for that. If people want to call you to donate toys, what number should they call? Contact

00:12:41.730 - 00:12:58.690

the main probation department office and it's in the phone book or it's 5 to 7 to 149. So basic if I'm understanding is correct, this is really a program put on by county employees. They developed the program to assist with certain individuals and families that may

00:12:58.690 - 00:13:13.290

not be able to receive those toys during the holidays. That is correct. And who wraps all of these toys and puts them together and organizes it. That is, it's a very big job, but the end result is very worthwhile. Um, the choice are purchased by brian

00:13:13.290 - 00:13:27.700

Willis who's doing it again this year. Thank God. Um then we put the toys, we have a toy room and we get, each child has their own individual tag and we get like a Macy's bag and we fill the bag with whatever age group girl boy

00:13:27.710 - 00:13:40.995

has their names. Okay. And then they go out on the line, it's like an assembly line and then we have youth groups and the Children from the youth center in the camp. They come out and we do about three times we have wrapped nights and then

00:13:41.005 - 00:13:59.245

those bags that have been filled, get wrapped and then they go to the individual probation officers and probation officers then deliver them to the Children. We have exceptions to how they get delivered. But um, like for instance, we have a senior house unique place um turning

00:13:59.245 - 00:14:14.340

point and deck, which is the drug abuse, alternative counseling. Um, three of those programs, they pick up them up. But the deck um program, that's the most special. That's where I get to see all my work, you know, come across because we have a big party

00:14:14.350 - 00:14:29.950

for the Children. This is for the drug perinatal unit where the Children are born to mothers who have been drug addicted and it's wonderful because we have like 100 kids there, each one has their own bag but santa comes santa and the elves come and he

00:14:29.950 - 00:14:43.160

sits there and all the kids are like it's just wonderful because santa calls each one by name and they come up, get a picture taken with santa, get their presence and they sit there and start ripping them open. And then the nice thing this year we

00:14:43.160 - 00:14:54.380

moved into the vet's memorial building. You've got so many more people because you've got so many more, we've got so many more people and we moved into the vet's memorial building and the comstock Choir is going to sing this year, we're gonna talk a little bit

00:14:54.380 - 00:15:15.810

more of that in a few minutes we're gonna stop for a public service announcement. We'll be right back talking about holiday sharing as a songwriter. I have the freedom to express my opinions with words and music. That's the right we all share as americans the freedom

00:15:15.810 - 00:15:38.810

to believe as we choose the right to speak out on the things we care about guaranteed by one thing, the mighty First Amendment, the amendment that keeps us free for free guide your First Amendment rights call 1 808 155335. Welcome back to Sonoma County in the

00:15:38.810 - 00:15:53.520

nineties we have with us bret ferris Loras lot from K. C. S. D. Rate from Sonoma County probation and we're talking about all the wonderful things that you're doing for people during the holiday season. Lauren Brett you're talking about the secret santa and the touching letters

00:15:53.520 - 00:16:07.590

that people write about people that they know that might need some assistance or some fun joy during the holiday season. I'm wondering if one of you want to read us an example of one of the letters that you receive or have received. Great we brought this

00:16:07.590 - 00:16:22.010

one out and again these have been like we call them sanitized because again we've taken all the names out when we get them. These are like little postcard scraps of paper written on handwritten notes on schoolbook papers. Sometimes they put Um they'll see the picture of

00:16:22.010 - 00:16:35.100

the family or uh it's it's I mean it's it's real stuff from real people. And then what we do is we re type them and take those people's names out and any reference to who they who they are so that you know, because some people are

00:16:35.110 - 00:16:47.940

embarrassed by it and it's that's not that's not our our goal. What we do on the radio is we read these letters and I'll read one to you now this is letter 48. We number them and they go up into the hundreds and this is what

00:16:47.940 - 00:17:01.230

you'd hear on my radio show in the morning says dear secret santa. I know a family who could desperately use your help. My friend just moved out of a battered women's shelter and into an apartment with her five year old daughter. It's still very difficult to

00:17:01.230 - 00:17:15.390

afford rent each and every month to buy food to pay bills. Things like that. Secret santa. Can you help brighten their christmas this year with just some of the basic items. A little girl could use a jacket, socks, warm clothes, like sweats for the winter months.

00:17:15.430 - 00:17:36.150

Mom is too proud to ask, but I'm sure she would appreciate some warm clothes and some food to please secret santa. Could you help them have a merry christmas this year? Signed a guardian angel. And I mean I'm doing it now every single time, Every single

00:17:36.150 - 00:17:49.140

time we do these. The thing that really is is impressive about the secret santa program is that there's real people with real stories and right here in this beautiful place that we call the California wine country where you have the great wineries and the beautiful vistas

00:17:49.140 - 00:18:02.840

and the great coastline and we've got people who are really truly in need and these are real people and that's what this program is all about. Laura's got all the good stories though. You know what's really touching about that letter? Um, it's not just identifying the

00:18:02.840 - 00:18:16.890

family in need. It's the person that wrote it. That caring element that I think sometimes we aren't aware that people are aware that people need help and people take the time to um express those feelings. I think that's what really moves one. That's what makes it

00:18:16.890 - 00:18:30.000

like we call it secret santa for because it works on a bunch of different ways. You, a person at home can know of a neighbor who may not be financially destitute but maybe it's a divorced mother of three whose husband is not making those child support

00:18:30.000 - 00:18:43.170

payments. And you know they're having a tough time. You can be their secret santa by just writing the letter and then somebody listening to the letter can be sent their secret santa by helping with the letter and then somebody delivering it gets to be secret santa.

00:18:43.170 - 00:18:56.670

Again, all these three people get to help one person and the surprise is when we show up and get to tell them that somebody cares about them. Laura's got the story, she's got them all. Let me ask a quick question laura for our viewers. I know

00:18:56.670 - 00:19:09.900

we have your phone number for K. C. S. T. If people want to learn more about, okay secret santa, should they just call you at K. C. S. T. Right. Right. Do you want to give us that phone number? That's 5284434 and they can call and

00:19:09.900 - 00:19:27.860

ask for the secret santa department And if I'm not there, there's a voicemail messages now with secret santa. When do you start talking about how people can get involved day after thanksgiving. Okay that's what I think that would be good to know. So people can start

00:19:27.880 - 00:19:41.020

thinking now and right after thanksgiving is when you start reading letters on, we already have letters, believe it or not you do. The program is, we've done it for six years and people really look forward to it and we've got all new ways of getting letters

00:19:41.020 - 00:19:55.190

this year. We have, I don't know how many we have already. I don't know quite a few. I mean there's quite a few letters already. Do you find much overlap with the other programs in the county where those same people that have been identified in the

00:19:55.190 - 00:20:08.610

letter are also receiving assistance. For example, from Ray's group. Do you have much of that? Well, actually I'm glad you brought that up because that is one of the sources of irritation to me a lot of times people will say to me, well, how how do

00:20:08.610 - 00:20:25.970

you know that these people aren't already getting a toy from another agency or a meal from another agency and I respond to them a meal from another. You know, how many times a day do you, do you want to eat? Um, so if there is any

00:20:25.970 - 00:20:38.840

overlap and I'm certain that there is, I'm actually thankful for that rather than skeptical, interesting. Was this letter you read a new letter this year or or is it a letter from last year? Number 48 that would be from last year. Okay. And how many letters

00:20:38.840 - 00:20:56.910

did you say that you get in one year of that book? Hundreds. Just two of them. And each one of these, I mean, look, you can see for yourself. There's they're all those are the re types handwritten on notebook paper, Um, handwritten on yellow legal paper.

00:20:57.150 - 00:21:15.010

It goes, what goes on there, type there? This is just a few. So how many letters did you get last year, would you guess? three or 400 easily? Were you able to to provide something for all those people? Unfortunately, we were not. No, no. We we

00:21:15.020 - 00:21:29.950

are a a small volunteer organization for the most part when we're doing the secret sand, even though we're a radio station. I mean, this is in addition to what we normally do and we just run to the end of the line and that's it. We have

00:21:29.950 - 00:21:46.910

to, you know, stop somewhere and letters continue to come in up until christmas day. So typically three or four days before christmas we're pretty much wrapping up the program. Let's talk a little bit about volunteers. How many volunteers do you use and you need more volunteers?

00:21:46.920 - 00:22:03.900

We can always use more volunteers. Um, the key to volunteering in this program is flexibility. Uh, typically the volunteers are delivering the gifts to the families. That's our biggest need for volunteers at this point. So they can call K. C. S. T. Also, if they want

00:22:03.900 - 00:22:17.920

to volunteer definitely just call the air studio anytime you can. Everybody knows how the program works. It's very easy just call the air studio anytime of the day and you won't be on the radio. Now. You mentioned that when you read the letter, it's usually specifically

00:22:17.920 - 00:22:35.630

things that people feel families need. What about financial donation? Money contributions? Do you look for that at all? We accept cash. In fact, we have a good story about that, but we do not give out cash. Um, last year we had a phone call from a

00:22:35.630 - 00:22:48.960

man who'd heard a letter read and he was driving along the freeway and called in on his cell phone and he said, I'd like to come by and give you some money and he came into the station and he flipped through a book. We have sample

00:22:48.960 - 00:23:04.840

letters that are available if you want to come into the station and he ended up writing a check for $3500 and specifying the letters that he wanted the money to go to. So then all of you went out and bought the things that these people, right?

00:23:04.950 - 00:23:18.480

So many times it's things like food and just the basic food supplies that we take for granted. I mean salt, 35 cents for 26 ounces. That's what it sells for. But to have salt in the house for many of these families is a luxury just to

00:23:18.480 - 00:23:35.880

bring that and we bring all kinds of food and our typical delivery to a family will be clothing for everyone on the list and at least an outfit? Um, two bags of food and toys for the kids? So it's a pretty large delivery. And who does

00:23:35.890 - 00:23:54.920

the shopping? Well we've been fortunate last year we had wonderful cooperation by Mervyn's department store at santa rosa Plaza and we would fax the list over to them and they filled it and then we'd go by and pick up the boxes a couple of times. Fiesta

00:23:54.920 - 00:24:10.420

market in um, Sebastopol provides the food. It's really nice for, I think for our viewers to hear all of the people in the community that support these kinds of things because it's important and we won't be able to provide these things if we don't have that

00:24:10.420 - 00:24:25.220

kind of community support specifically from the business community. Well there's people like Silvera up in Healdsburg Pontiac. They're, they're like, you can always count on certain names in the community and you see them over and over and over again at all kinds of events and those

00:24:25.220 - 00:24:35.780

are the people who really care in the county that that's what it's all about. And I think the more that we talk about this and the more that people learn about that they might want to take the opportunity to get involved. Ray, let's talk a little

00:24:35.780 - 00:24:50.730

bit about the people that the young people that you provide gifts for? And I think a question might arise for our viewers is why do we want to give gifts to people on probation? So do you want to address that a little bit. Yes. Um, the

00:24:50.730 - 00:25:05.950

Children of convicted felons, they're not, they haven't been convicted of any crime. They're victims of their parents, you know, mishaps. And as far as I'm concerned, those Children deserve a christmas because they're our future and if we can give to them now then maybe they can

00:25:05.950 - 00:25:21.920

grow up and give to someone else and they're just, they're just victims of their circumstances. How many Children do you thank you serve in a year? During this time? During this time? Probably 350 to 400. Are the numbers growing. Do you see an increase in people

00:25:21.920 - 00:25:35.750

that are on probation with families? Yes. Each year. Each year it gets larger and larger. In 1989 it started with 100 and 62 kids and we're looking at probably 400 over 400 this year. Its interest, I wanna hear all of you talking. It makes me want

00:25:35.750 - 00:25:47.410

to think, why do we just do this at one time of the year? Why don't we do it all year round? It just sounds so important. I mean there are lots of groups and agencies in Sonoma County that work all year round on this kind of

00:25:47.410 - 00:26:01.500

thing, but they never get any credit that it's, it's just somehow the christmas season that brings that out in us and all we can hope is that maybe some of this will rub off and the giving just takes place all year long. I I know that

00:26:01.500 - 00:26:15.110

I'm, I'm involved with the county and different departments that help different individuals. And I think it's important. I think what you said is true that we really need to start acknowledging the people that do this all year round and not just at a specific time because

00:26:15.110 - 00:26:33.260

it really makes a difference to people. So this year, um, laura, do you need more volunteers? Um, always we can always use more volunteers. Um, and if they want to call the station at 5284434 and leave a message, then I can call them back and let

00:26:33.260 - 00:26:48.430

them know how they can help. Do you have any short story you want to show that touched your heart refrigerator story a few minutes but we want to make it very okay. I was in the station one night and we re read a letter on the

00:26:48.430 - 00:27:03.190

air written by a neighbor talking about her friend, lady friend who had a young son who was critically ill and had to have his medication refrigerated. The mom was moving didn't have a refrigerator. She read the letter with the DJ, read the letter on the air

00:27:03.320 - 00:27:15.690

and we had a man again called from his cell phone. He said I'm in the process of moving. I'm moving as we speak. And I have an extra refrigerator. Would she like to have it? And so I said, well, let me call and you know, because

00:27:15.690 - 00:27:25.390

a woman who was receiving and had no phone, I had to do some coordinating. So I called her friend and I said, you know who I was and I were answering your letter. We have a man on the other line with the refrigerator he wants to

00:27:25.400 - 00:27:37.920

deliver Now. Well, the woman just became hysterical and she started to cry. And so then I had to call the man's wife to let her know that he was coming over there to pick up the refrigerator to move it to this other apartment. And the wife

00:27:37.920 - 00:27:52.250

started to cry. Then we have the DJ on the air crying. And then I'm crying. It was crazy. You know, we had like a conference call with everyone trying to get this refrigerator delivered. The mother was very thankful and that's something that you just can't easily

00:27:52.250 - 00:28:06.780

obtain a refrigerator. I mean, where would you go if you needed a refrigerator? And so through the magic of radio, we were able to get the message out there and a listener was able to deliver a refrigerator to a needy family. That's really a lovely story.

00:28:07.380 - 00:28:21.750

I mean it really touches one to hear that. And it makes one feel good that we know that people are listening to the radio and responding even though I may not love cell phones all the time. It seems to me that they're making a contribution to

00:28:21.750 - 00:28:34.980

your program. So, um, that's great. Any specific instance where you delivered a toy that was just touching that you want to share? Oh, yes, about one minute. So yes, it was, it was wonderful. It's when we had one of the dark party and we have a

00:28:34.980 - 00:28:51.250

lot of Children that are in wheelchairs. And just when she saw santa and she started crying. And Oh, I never had a just look on the children's faces. Just just very heartwarming. Well, this is a really touching show and I want to thank all three of

00:28:51.250 - 00:29:01.780

you for coming and I commend all the wonderful work you're doing. Thank you for watching Sonoma County in the 90s. And I invite you to join us on each and every edition of our show. Have a great week. Thank you.
