A Message from Paula Kerger,
Spotlight On
"On June 12th, the last night of the Great TV Auction, Romola Drost was kidnapped from her traditional spot behind the Art Board and escorted to the stage. Under the hot lights and in front of the TV cameras, she smiled as the WCTE staff and Auction volunteers sang Happy Birthday to her in honor of her 90th birthday."

"Thompson is one of WCTE’s all-star volunteers. She is comfortable and poised
in front of the cameras, and is a valued on-air personality during the station’s Pledge
Drives. In the past, she has helped out with Station’s of Imagination, WCTE’s event for
kids at the Cookeville Fall Funfest."

"We need a good public television station in our area. To me, it’s our station…and I have a good feeling about it."
