Celebrating 35 Years Of Public Radio In Vermont

August 13th is a very special day for Vermont Public Radio! We went on the air 35 years ago today, bringing public radio to Vermonters for the first time.  It's also the 5th anniversary of Vermont Edition becoming a daily program! To celebrate, we put together this slideshow of VPR through the years:



Back then, people said Vermont was too small and rural to support a vibrant public radio service, but today we’re one of the most listened-to and best-supported public radio stations in the country. Thank you for proving them wrong!

When did you first discover VPR? We hope you'll share your memories by posting a comment below.
