Through the generosity of our members, the Public Education Program (PEP) has been revived. PEP is the primary source of funding for our association. Thank you for your continued support and commitment to this effort. We plan to be at full capacity for PEP sponsorships, later in 2017.
Our annual conference, Spectrum Awards and Hall of Fame event in November were a tremendous success with nearly 400 members attending the event. We look forward to growing the event this year and encourage your feedback and ideas.
Looking ahead, it’s that season again when the Indiana General Assembly reconvenes and a new administration takes over in Washington. Indiana Broadcasters will be well represented at the NAB State Leadership Conference in Washington in late February, as IBA board members will attend the conference and meet with members of Congress on Capitol Hill.
I wish you a healthy and prosperous 2017!
