Welcome to WFPC Podcasting! This is a weekly look at news, information and the people in and around Pike County! One thing that endeared Pike County to me, when I pulled into town, was community and caring about each other. 70 years ago, some of the people in the community realized we needed a stronger baseball presence within the community. After all, the best first baseman in major league ball played for the Brooklyn Dodgers and was from right here. So a few individuals, parents, business owners, started meeting in the above the Voyles IGA Building in Johnny and Virginia’s office, in what is now to White Brick Hair Salon. Deb Minnis started hauling in sand to what became the American Legion Baseball Field. Lem and Louise MCClellan started hosting fish fries to raise money… the whole community was involved and ready to play ball for the 1957 season! Today, that community still exists on the American Legion Baseball Field. When we were starting WFPC Podcasting months ago, I was telling the Little League President’s husband about the podcast and he said, “We need to promote the little league at sign up time.” Here we are. And the position of dealing with Randy was dealt 6 for 7 months ago to Buck Seger. Thanks for joining us for this program of WFPC Podcasting! As you notice WFPC Podcasting is incorporating new sponsors to the program. Many thanks to Kyle Hathaway for his continued sponsorship as well as Harris Real Estate and Petersburg Car Wash. Welcome to The Dustin Schnarr Agency, Shoultz Eye Care and The Log Ends Farm Bed and Breakfast. WFPC Podcasting is not as expensive as the overhead of a radio station, but there is still overhead and we hope you thank our sponsors for their support. We hope to grow WFPC and it’s list of sponsors in the future to provide more quality programing.
