President's Letter As the federal government bears down to eliminate funding for public media, this is a crucial time to remind ourselves what’s at stake.

Along with other stations across the country, WCNY plays a vital role in informing, educating, and engaging communities. Throughout its history, public media has faced threats to its federal support, but none as serious as the one we face today. As I write this, the executive branch has asked Congress to rescind more than one billion dollars appropriated for fiscal years 2026 and 2027. While WCNY is better positioned than most to withstand such cuts, it is only because of your support.

Make no mistake: cuts to federal funding would have real consequences. There will be sacrifices in the scope of programming we can offer. But because of your ongoing commitment, we remain steadfast in our mission to deliver the trusted news, educational content, and cultural programming that our region deserves.

Today, WCNY is more than a broadcaster. We are a classroom, a convener, a platform for local voices, and a partner in progress. We are a place where children learn to read, teens explore career paths, and adults gain new skills through lifelong learning. If federal funding is eliminated, the station will feel the impact.

Yet we are resolved not to retreat from our commitment to serving the people of Central New York, the Mohawk Valley, and the Finger Lakes.

WCNY is a community-owned and community-operated media organization.

We operate in partnership with the very people we serve, delivering critical communication services that matter.

Thank you for making WCNY part of your world and for helping us serve the region we all call home. Most of all, thank you for standing with WCNY and with everyone who relies on public media to learn, grow, and be heard.

You can reach out to your representatives at protectmypublicmedia.org to let them know that public media is a resource that you, your family, and friends value and want to preserve.

Watermelon Feta Salad 6-8 Servings This watermelon feta salad recipe combines juicy watermelon and fragrant cheese—great for a cookout or as a side dish.

Ingredients

What to Pack Blankets & Towels Whether you’re going to swim the day away or plan on soaking in the sun while laying in the sand, a beach blanket or towel is a must!

Chairs & Umbrellas Sometimes it’s nice to sit in the sand, but why not make your beach day more comfortable with a beach chair? Plus, pack an umbrella to protect yourself from the sun for total relaxation.

Cooler Remember to keep your snacks and drinks cold this summer! Having a cooler on hand will keep your food fresh. Don’t forget to include some ice packs!

• 6 cups cubed watermelon • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese • ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion • ¼ cup chopped fresh mint • ¼ cup fresh lime juice • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

Directions 1. Combine watermelon, feta cheese, red onion, and mint in a large bowl.

2. Pour the lime juice and olive oil over the watermelon mixture and toss gently to coat.

3. Serve immediately.

First Aid Kit While beach days are exciting, there is room for minor injuries to take place. Even though lifeguards can help, it’s always best to bring a first aid kit along to help treat cuts, scrapes, and burns.

Sunscreen Sunscreen is one of the most important things to pack when you’re going to the beach. Never underestimate the sun… even on a cloudy day!

EDUCATION

Let's Make a Summer Souvenir Box! Alma creates a lot of new memories with her family when she visits Puerto Rico, like finding shells on the beach, visiting the El Yunque National Rainforest, eating alcapurrias and pasteles, and learning a new poem.

One way to remember fun summer days with your family is by creating a souvenir box. The box can be a place to collect items that spark memories. You can fill the box with notes, drawings, small trinkets, and mementos—anything from a special time you had with your family or friends.

As you make more memories throughout the summer, you can add more items to the box.

Materials • A shoebox or cardboard box with a lid • Paper (white or any color) • Crayons, markers, or paint • Stickers or other decorations • Glue or tape • Scissors (with adult supervision) • Fabric scraps (optional)

Directions 1. Work together to decorate the box.

You can cover it with paper, fabric scraps, stickers, or simply paint or color the box.

2. Talk about the special times you have shared with family and friends. Each person can write or draw about a fun summer memory they'd like to add to the box. Younger children may need help writing a message about the special time. You can add photographs or other mementos to the box, too!

3. Keep your box in a special place and continue to add to it throughout the summer. You can open the box anytime and share stories and memories about the things inside.

Thank You for Standing with WCNY Classic FM

Liner Notes

To everyone who gave during our Spring Fundraiser—thank you. Your support keeps the music playing and the mission alive. As federal funding for public media faces serious threats, your contribution helps ensure that WCNY Classic FM remains strong, independent, and deeply rooted in our community.

July is also the month we kick off voting for your Classic FM Top 40 Listener Favorites. Check out page 36 for suggestions, then go online to wcny.org/ top-40 to vote for your favorite works. Voting is open through midnight on Friday, Aug. 29. We’ll tally the results over the weekend and begin the Top 40 Countdown on Labor Day—Monday, Sept. 1. Be sure to get your vote in!

Because of you, we can continue to grow our music library, support our staff, and share classical music with listeners across our region.

We’re proud to serve, and grateful you’ve chosen to stand with us.

Shannon Hanrahan VP of Philanthropy

Welcome to summer! We hope you’ll take Classic FM along with you—whether you’re headed to the lake, going on vacation, or just heading to work.

We’d like to give a huge thank you to everyone who contributed during the June FM Fundraiser. We are always grateful for your strong support. Your contributions make it possible for us to continue bringing you the music you love, introducing you to new works and releases, and providing great original programming. This month, we’re pleased to showcase the Syracuse University Brass Ensemble in our Independence Day special, hosted by our own Bruce Paulsen.

Coming up in August, keep your ear on Classic FM—and your eye on WCNY TV—for our annual special celebrating the Music Educator Award Honorees from the 2024-25 school year. The studios have been filled with great music and incredible teachers who make a lasting impact on their students.

Watch the special on WCNY TV on Saturday, Aug. 30 at 11:30 a.m., and listen on Classic FM on Saturday, Aug. 30 at 6:30 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 3 at 6:30 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 4 at 8:30 a.m., and Friday, Sept. 5 at noon.

If you know of a deserving music educator in Central New York, let us know!

Submit your nominations at wcny.org/musiceducator. We’re looking forward to the new school year and to honoring even more outstanding teachers!

In other exciting news, Community FM is proud to welcome ARISE - Exceptional Family Resources to the WCNY family! The organization has recently decided to move production of its podcast to the WCNY Studios. Hosted by CEO Tania S.

Nestled in the heart of Upstate New York, The Glimmerglass Festival is a summer destination where audiences gather from across the country and the world to experience world-class opera, musical theater, and cultural events in an idyllic lakeside setting. Each season, more than 25,000 guests enjoy four fully staged productions, alongside concerts, cabarets, and thoughtprovoking talks that bring song and story to life. As a professional nonprofit opera company, Glimmerglass is deeply committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse environment while nurturing the next generation of theater artists and professionals.

The company's mission—to produce new, familiar, and rarely heard works in innovative productions, provide transformative training for emerging artists, and inspire dialogue on meaningful issues—aligns closely with the values of PBS. Like WCNY, we believe in the power of the arts and education to uplift communities and create shared cultural experiences. We proudly support PBS for its dedication to lifelong learning, storytelling, and accessible programming that reflects and celebrates the diversity of our world. Through this shared vision, we work together to enrich lives and strengthen the cultural fabric of Central New York and beyond.

Located at 55 ½ College St. in Clinton, NY, the mission of the Kirkland Town Library is to connect community members through equitable access to information and resources that educate, engage, and enrich.

The library first opened its doors on December 11, 1901. The 32 circulating books were housed in two rented rooms of the Sigma Phi Fraternity house. This nineteenth-century Victorian building, built in 1871, still serves as the home of the library.

This past spring, the library partnered with the Indie Lens Pop-Up Series and WCNY to screen two documentaries: “We Want the Funk!” and “Free for All: The Public Library.”

Fall Preview We don’t want to rush the end of summer, but stay tuned for an inspiring and engaging lineup of upcoming events and in-studio screenings, including: • “Caregiving,” a moving and timely documentary from Executive Producer Bradley Cooper that explores the emotional and often unseen world of family caregivers.

• “The American Revolution,” the latest film from acclaimed filmmaker Ken Burns. This powerful documentary offers a fresh perspective on the people, events, and ideals that shaped the birth of a nation.

• “Lafayette: A Hero’s Return,” a compelling film that follows the journey of the Marquis de Lafayette and his enduring legacy in both American and French history.

Plus, for those looking to experience the holiday season in a truly special way, there will be an exclusive opportunity to cruise the Danube River from December 14–21 with Lynn Elmhirst, host of “World’s Greatest Cruises.” This unforgettable journey will take you through Europe’s most picturesque Christmas markets, blending holiday charm with cultural discovery.

More details will be available in the September/October magazine and on our website as dates are finalized. For more information, contact Katherine Keeney at katherine.keeney@wcny.org.

August is Make-A-Will Month As summer heats up, WCNY invites our community to embrace the importance of planning for the future during Make-A-Will Month this August. While it may not be the most traditional summer activity, creating a will is one of the most essential steps in ensuring your legacy is preserved and your loved ones are protected.

Throughout the month, we encourage you to consider making a will—not only as a way to safeguard your assets but also to support causes and organizations that matter to you, like WCNY. By including WCNY in your estate plans, you can help sustain our mission to provide quality educational and cultural programming for future generations.

Making a will is not just about assigning assets; it’s about shaping a legacy that reflects your values and priorities. By considering WCNY in your estate plans, you are investing in your community and helping ensure that the rich tapestry of programming we offer continues to inspire and educate.

Creating a will may seem daunting, but it is a vital step in planning for your future. This August, take the time to reflect on your wishes and make those intentions known. Whether you are creating your first will or updating an existing one, it is an opportunity to address your family’s needs while considering how you can support the causes you care about—educational initiatives, trusted and reliable news coverage, or cultural programming. A legacy gift can help secure the future of public media, ensuring that our programs continue to inspire, educate, and entertain for generations to come.

WCNY’s commitment to enriching lives through educational content and cultural experiences is made possible by the generosity of our supporters. By planning your estate with WCNY in mind, you are helping to shape a legacy that reflects our shared values and sustains the vital work we do.

The goal of National Estate Planning Awareness Week is to empower individuals with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed decisions about their legacy. We believe everyone deserves the peace of mind that comes with a comprehensive estate plan.

To learn more about National Estate Planning Awareness Week or to notify WCNY of your intentions, contact Katherine Keeney at 315.551.6838 or katherine.keeney@wcny.org, or visit wcny.org/support-wcny/other-ways-to-give.

The process is simple, but your support lives well into the future.
