The Little Village that Could
Saturday, February 4, 2012
Two years ago this week, we launched Small Town, Big Dreams on national PBS and tonight we're taking if off the air - and bringing it home to the little village that could for a screening /Q&A and DVD signing to benefit the Lake Placid Olympic Museum.
It's been an amazing journey, first as hundreds of stations picked up the program and then as the entire country embraced this little town, it's story and it's enduring legacy.
Lake Placid -- this is your story.
Thank you for letting us tell it.
Admission is free!
