Penn Jillette, Nikki Taylor, TV3 Winchester...

Comedian/Magician Penn Jillette (53), Model Nikki Taylor (33), and TV3 Winchester (1) were all born on the same day!!!!  March 5th marks our 1 year on-air anniversary.  In sports it's been an amazing ride...birthing a department, getting to know all the local high schools and their traditions and rivalries has been one of the most rewarding professional experiences of my life.  When I first came up here from Georgia... Winchester was just a city on a map, and now it's home.  Whether it was Clarke County's amazing double state championship in basketball last March, Sherando's run to the state football title game back in December, or any of the great summer sports in between, there hasn't been a dull moment for the past 365 days (or is it 366 with the leap year?).   Regardless, I'm proud of all that the staff here at TV3 Winchester has accomplished both on-air and off, and I think the Shenandoah Valley can look forward to a lot of improvements and continued hard work in 2008-2009. 

Before I get back to working on our shows for tonight... I'd like to take a moment to thank YOU, all the viewers in this area.  Thank you for letting us into your homes... thank you for allowing us to tell your stories... thank you for your patience as we continue to improve our on-air product, thank you for caring about local sports in a way that only the Shenandoah Valley can... and thank you on a personal level for welcoming me into this community and letting me be a part of what was already an awesome sports town.

All in all, GRACIAS!!!!

VERY well said, Sebastian. But viewers should also know how much of an extraordinary effort you and the other reporters/anchors/producers put in to making TV3's on-air (and on-web) product so wonderful. Our television/web viewers are superb, yes ~ without a doubt, but so is our news department. :)

Sebastian, it seems like yesterday when I welcomed you into the area and we really got into knowing each other because of the Caps and Sabres. (which we beat you guys tonight 3-1) But, so much as happened and you got to see it all here. You got to your 1st Sherando/Handley game, you got to see Clarke County do the doubledown in basketball, us make it to the state finals in football, etc. But now, let's look to the future and hope that more years will bring more joy to the area for sports and news wise around the area.
