The latest episode of Footprints of Pacifica is finally here!

 As up and coming small town, Pacifica, just 6 years old, had an idea to reinvent the way Santa would visit the children that holiday season. Santa would fly down to see the kids one windy day in December, to bring Christmas joy and help promote the growing town of Pacifica. However, that very wind would be the one of the twists of fate that kept the Pacifica on its toes as Santa blew away into the ocean and in the path of an unsuspecting surfer named Guy Giedzinski.

Watch Deidra Kennedy, a member of the Pacifica Historical Society, interview Guy Giedzinski about his thrilling rescue in 1963. He'll reveal all the details about the rescue and how it still impacts him to this day.

Learn more about Pacifica and reminisce about the beginnings of the town!

The legendary festival has come once again to the coast side! Come join the fun as PCT helps celebrate the 24th year of the Arts and Fun Fest.

One big comeback this year is the South Coast Artist Alliance Fine Art Exhibit. This special exhibition showcases local artists and talent from Pescadero and neighboring towns. All goods are made locally and funds will go to the artists themselves. Organizers invite you come check out the exhibit to see the talent and maybe even come home with a new piece to add to your collection. 

The same values that Pescadero held 24 years ago are still in place today. Not only does the Arts and Fun Fest provide a space to promote local art, it also creates  an environment to support local students. Every year the festival donates to the local school programs and gives scholarships to graduating seniors.

No matter if you're wanting to help artists or students, there will always be a way to help out the town of Pescadero at the Arts and Fun Fest!

The Festival is on

August 15-16

        Having a loving and supportive environment forms the foundation of a strong community. It was from these ideals, that the Big Wave project came into fruition. Steve and Jamie Barber and Jeff and Valerie Peck decided to accomplish two things: to provide a place in which individuals with developmental disabilities could reach their full potential and to provide local Coast side businesses with the commercial space to thrive and grow.

       The Big Wave Project has been tabled a few times over the years, due to disagreements over details in the plan. Like every proposal, there are pros and cons to the community it's enforced in. The San Mateo County Planning Commission discussed the future of this project on 1/14/15. Don’t worry if you missed it because we have you covered.  The whole meeting will be broadcasted here on Pacific Coast Television!

    It is a natural desire for every human being to feel included. Being engulfed in a loving and supportive environment can bring people to heights they did not feel they could reach before. Having a loving and supportive environment forms the foundation of a strong community. It was from these ideals, that the Big Wave project came into fruition.

The New Year is an excellent time to be grateful. One of the best reasons we have to be grateful at PCT is our friends! Over the past year we've cultivated many relationships both new and old!

We wish to say a sincere thanks to all of these friends. This year several friends stepped up and really came through in a big way. Whether it was business sponsors like Terry's Hair Factory, board members like Jo-Lynn Ruedas or political friends like Mike O'Neill, our friends really came through. We also wish to acknowledge Congresswoman Jackie Speier, Senator Jerry Hill and Assembleyman Kevin Mullin, all of whom came through for us as well. 

Many partners, sponsors and community members joined in including the city of Half Moon Bay and other friends. It truly takes a village to make a community TV station. We are very grateful for the contributions of so many. If I failed to mention you by name please be aware that there are so many who I did not mention that also deserve our thanks. All we can say is thank you to everyone for making 2014 a banner year. We look forward to seeing you in 2015. Together, we will accomplish incredible things!
