BIG CHANGES AT 
SIERRA MADRE’S 
INTERNET RADIO 
STATION:

 The Board of Directors of Village 
Vine Online has decided to 
move the organization in a new 
direction. In keeping with our 
mission of community service, we 
are discontinuing 24/7 live audio streaming. In order to better serve the 
community, our focus will be on providing live audio and video webcasts 
and podcasts of community events, podcasts of hosted shows homegrown 
here in Sierra Madre, video and audio webcasts and podcasts of 
community sports events, and, by the end of the summer, we will present 
a community blog, with guest host bloggers rotating every few months. 

CITIZEN WEBCASTERS: Part of our new approach is to utilize “citizen 
webcasters” living here in town. We are now actively recruiting people 
who can attend public events, and, utilizing equipment as simple as their 
smart phones, webcast those events through the Village Vine web site. 
Contact us at hostvi@yahoo.com if you would like to volunteer. Training 
will be provided. 

CITIZEN PODCASTERS: We are looking for podcasters who might like 
to share their home-grown podcasts on the Village Vine web site. Subjects 
for podcasts could include original music, gardening, cars, dogs, water 
conservation, sports, etc. The subject matter for potential podcasts is only 
limited to the degree the community might have interest in it. Contact us 
at hostvi@yahoo.com if you would be interested in podcasting with us.
