Jim Pokrandt, Colorado River Water District:
“Hi, I’m Jim Pokrandt from the Colorado River Water District, an organization that works to protect, conserve and safeguard the water resources of the Colorado River Basin. We support Aspen Public Radio through underwriting because of its dedication to news and public affair programming, and we know that public radio represents an opportunity to reach an engaged citizenry that would be receptive to learning more and becoming actively aware of the critical water issues facing the Arid West. In short, Aspen Public Radio lets people know who we are."

Hi, I’m Pat Bingham, Community Relations Director for Pitkin County Government. After many years as a listener myself, I appreciate the fact that Aspen Public Radio reaches the audience I want to reach with messages about local government. The programming is so good on Aspen Public Radio, I know that Pitkin County’s messages are going to be listened to.”
Patty Fox, Aspen Center for Physics:
“Hi, I’m Patty Fox of the Aspen Center for Physics. When we celebrated our 50th anniversary in 2012, we relied on Aspen Public Radio to help spread the word about the summer of lectures, events, and celebrations that we had planned. Since then, we’ve found that by underwriting on Aspen Public Radio, attendance at both our winter and summer lectures has continued to increase. We appreciate the excellent programming that attracts listeners who love knowing about the Aspen Center for Physics and our upcoming events.”
