I would like to join everyone in wishing heartiest congratulations to the entire staff and management of Radio Anguilla on this 50th Anniversary. Your commitment to outstanding service, broadcasting, and keeping our people reliably informed, and updated, is noteworthy. This dedication was especially manifested in your programming during and after Hurricane Irma, in spite of potential physical harm. It is amazing what you continue to accomplish as a public entity with a limited budget.
My first visit to Radio Anguilla was as a young boy on the Saturday morning Children’s Program where I recited a poem “Fishing with my Dad”. My next visit was in 2014 when I was interviewed as an AUM candidate by Keith Stone Greaves, one of the region’s leading journalists. Throughout the years, Radio Anguilla has won the confidence, respect and affection of the people of Anguilla and the region. The maintenance and expansion of this high level of radio broadcasting is a commendable achievement. Also, Radio Anguilla has served as the incubator and training studio for many of Anguilla’s best broadcasters, commentators, radio programmers, interviewers and journalists.
Even with other media outlets servicing Anguilla, Radio Anguilla continues to excel in providing information, education and entertainment. Its radio voices continue to be household names, and the content and specialized programming continues to keep listeners tuned in.
Congratulations again to Radio Anguilla on 50 years of outstanding service – and God’s Blessings as you continue to advance democracy, freedom of speech and information, and provide fair and balanced broadcasting for years to come.
