WEVL Spring Pledge Drive And SSS Special

WEVL 89.9 FM is the home of the SSS, and the station begins its Spring Pledge Drive tomorrow morning.  There will be nine days of special programming, including a special edition of the SSS on Wednesday, April 20 - "Night on the Town:  A musical tour through New York City in the Swing Era."  As a listener-supported, noncommercial station, WEVL relies heavily on pledge drives to keep operating, so mark you calendars, set your dial, get ready to call with your pledge, and enjoy.  Thanks.
