THE OTSEGO OWL Week of December 18, 2006 Volume 1 No THE OTSEGO OWL Week of December 18, 2006 Volume 1 No. 15 A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL Sharon Stepankewich December is a month that is filled with numerous celebrations. Each family has their own unique ways of enjoying the holiday season. Try to make the most of this year’s festivities by adding some of the following activities to your holiday repertoire: • Start a new tradition for your family that can be carried on for years to come. It can be as simple as a joyful song, favorite meal, special outing, or new and exciting way to decorate your home for the season. Try to come up with an idea together that is meaningful for the entire family. • Many people spend countless hours in crowded malls and stores searching for the perfect gift. Explore the option of making a contribution to a person's favorite charity. This is a thoughtful idea that will honor the recipient and make a difference for those in need. • Volunteer your time to help people who are less fortunate. Local shelters, food banks, hospitals, and nursing homes, as well as hundreds of other charities, often welcome extra hands this time of year. Your family could provide some cheer for individuals who are having a difficult holiday season. Offering your time also helps gain perspective for your own situation. This experience will teach your child the importance of giving back to their community. Try to extend this volunteer work throughout the entire year. • Make a special effort to learn about other cultures and traditions during this month. Find out what friends and neighbors are doing to celebrate the season and share your family’s special events with others. Take part in a cultural experience (play, concert, art show), try new foods, or visit a historical site (near or far). Our local library as well as the Internet can provide resources to help you study other cultures or traditions with your child. Enjoy this special time with your loved ones! THIS WEEK’S AGENDA • PLEASE NOTE: The Morning ELA Program for Grades 3, 4, and 5 has ended. • Friday December 22nd - Grades 4 and 5 - Field Trip to Elwood Movie Theater (Charlotte’s Web) • Saturday, December 23rd - Winter Recess Begins FUTURE OTSEGO HAPPENINGS • Tuesday, January 2nd - School Opens • Wednesday, January 3rd - PTA Executive Board Meeting, 6:30PM PTA General Membership Meeting, 7:30PM • Week of January 8th - New York State English Language Arts Exam, Grades 3-5 • Monday, January 8th - Otsego hosts the Board of Education Meeting PARENT TALK When your child is frustrated with school, help him/her put the problem into perspective.

  • Dent on Susquehanna's Opening Day at WGBB. Not Knowing That the Station Had Just Changed Hands, an Unannounced FCC Field Inspector Showed up to Conduct an Inspection
    Mr. Lawrence, moreover, recalls an even more disquieting inci- dent on Susquehanna's opening day at WGBB. Not knowing that the station had just changed hands, an unannounced FCC field inspector showed up to conduct an inspection. "He found all sorts of offenses," Mr. Lawrence recalled. "Viola- tions of transmitter regulations and other equipment, program, and transmitter log discrepancies and problems, and goodness knows what else." Obviously, Susquehanna was not cited for these violations. The location was so poor that Bill Musser had trouble getting people to come to the station for job interviews: "They refused to stop in the neighborhood." Such unpleasantries were forgotten when, less than a year later, the operation moved to modern, spacious quarters at 1240 Broadcast Plaza in Merrick, and the Company installed state -of- the -art equip- ment. Initially, the station occupied two floors of the new Merrick building, but the subsequent expansion of station activities soon re- quired using the third floor as well. Just because Company plans had blueprinted WGBB as more of a "sales- oriented animal" than a program one did not mean program- ming was relegated to a subordinate function. Musically, the format was a blend of "Middle -of- the -Road" pop and pop- oriented Rock. Even if there was little or no chance of WGBB loosening the grip of WABC, still the sound needed to be contemporary. Although Long Islanders considered themselves a separate universe, culturally they identified with their sophisticated neighbors in Manhattan. The WGBB disc jockeys could by no means be second class entertain- ment. Susquehanna's charge to disc jockeys ( "What goes on between the records is the most important ingredient of your show ") applied in extra measure at WGBB.
