When our children were young, we discovered SLB radio while on our way to visit their grandparents. We loved the games and we made it a family competion to come up with the correct answers. We soon were looking forward to the amusing tunes and games each weekend. Finally someone decided to join in and call in our answers. On one occasion, our correct answer gave us tickets to a viewing of a movie hosted by SLB, at the Oaks theatre in Oakmont Pa. Everyone there were SLB winners and we all got to meet the host, Larry! This event was an opportune to introduce friends to SLB. When SLB could be connected to through the internet, I informed out of state, family members to tune in on Saturday mornings. SLB is now listened to, shared and enjoyed around the globe. It's great to hear the up and coming young talent of school children, while they learn about radio.

SLB is an outstanding community resource here in Pittsburgh. I've known Larry Berger, the show's producer and voice, for over 25 years, and have enjoyed listening to his varied, family-oriented show. Larry has hosted many open houses where he invites the community to come in to visit with him and the staaff as they produce on-air, live radio. I took our two young children in to see how radio is done about 15 years ago when SLB was originating from the campus of Chatham College (now University). Both kids enjoyed meeting Larry, and having breakfast goodies. I commend SLB and Larry and Rikki Berger for their commitment to excellence in family radio. Bob Kenneweg rdkenneweg@yahoo.com

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

The consistent weekly fun and games, and great music that comes our way. I especially enjoy the 10:00 to 10:30 segement where young people get to perform live on the air. Many performers are virtuosos.

I've been a listern of the Saturday Light Brigade for many years. I've also been at some off site broadcasts, such as the Allegheny County Music Festival at Hartwood Acres, the Storywalk, and National Adoption Day the Allegheny County Family Court. I have admired Larry Berger's ability to relate to people of all ages and engage them in conversation and games. Over the years, SLB Radio has expanded its education prgrams by engaging schools, scounting groups, and other organizations. Larry Berger and his team have successfully used radio broadcast to teach young people the value of the medium in having their thoughts and opinions heard. I consider SLB Radio to be one of the special assets of Pittsburgh.

The Great!

My grandchildren and I have visited the studio and been on air and have been at local events where SLB Radio was broadcasting and have been thrilled with the experience.
