Reaching the Seniors through new Dimensions

1/1/2005

It was the 1950's and television was still a new medium. Some of our very fortunate neighbors even had color television sets by the end of that decade. Besides the radio and local newspaper, television was how we managed to keep abreast of what was happening in our world. It was an exciting time in America. Many of us can remember gathering around a 21-inch black and white television set to watch wrestling or maybe the news. Although our choices were somewhat limited, we were actually able to see the voices that kept us informed and entertained on those cold Cleveland nights. Not a lot has changed except we have ten times as many radio stations, and nearly thirty times as many television stations. What we didn't have was dedicated web sites for seniors that kept them informed of changes in Health care, government issues, leisure time activities and finances. We've come along way in the information age but for the first time we have actually begun to address Seniors on an individualized basis by bringing them programming that directly impacts their lives in four different media alternatives! The Senior Connection hosts gratefully acknowledge the many sponsors and listeners that we have had over the last 10 and a half years and look forward to bringing you the same quality programming in 2005.
