The time around winter solstice means many things to many people – holidays spent with loved ones, a chance to celebrate the season of giving and a time to look ahead at the promise of a new year and new beginnings. For one Granite Society member, watching her favorite programs on New Hampshire PBS and learning something new brings renewed enthusiasm and inspiration for what lies ahead.

Recently, Major Gifts Officer Terry Fitzpatrick sat down with Joan Z. to talk about why she avidly watches and ardently supports New Hampshire PBS.

Sitting inside her late-1700s farmhouse that she inherited from her grandfather, you can feel the generations of family surrounding her. “He emigrated from Lithuania in the early 1920s. He was a farmer, and he developed the land. It’s been in our family ever since that time.”

Joan is proud to point out that one part of the house is of the Victorian style, and another section is more from the Federalist period. “I’m interested in antiques and restoration of old houses, and that’s why I love to watch THIS OLD HOUSE and ANTIQUES ROADSHOW on New Hampshire PBS.”

Walking outside past an old barn that attaches to the house, Joan pushes open a gate and shows off the space for another favorite pastime. “I also have an organic garden, and I enjoy growing all of my own vegetables. It takes a lot of work to do these things, but it is

worth it in the end.”

Joan’s interests are as varied as the vegetables she harvests from her garden. “WINDOWS TO THE WILD, GRANITE STATE CHALLENGE, NOVA and MASTERPIECE — these are all wonderful programs. New Hampshire PBS has taught me a lot, and I’m grateful for that.”

After a long day at work, Joan often turns on the PBS NEWSHOUR to catch up on the news. “On the PBS NEWSHOUR, they discuss the topics of the day. Whether it is politics, entertainment or science, they have specialists in the field who discuss both sides, and it makes you think.”

Joan says, “I would encourage people to join the NHPBS Granite Society to show their gratitude for all the wonderful programming that they are watching. I appreciate quality over quantity, and I appreciate truthfulness and honesty, and that’s why I’m a member of New Hampshire PBS. It’s a wonderful thing to give back, and it will make you feel really good.”

If you believe in the power and promise of public television too, please become a member of the Granite Society – NHPBS’ most passionate donors who make an annual leadership gift. Contact Terry Fitzpatrick, at 603-868-4467, and help support a new year of enlightenment and enrichment for everyone in your community.
