Maybe that’s while they’re driving to work in the morning or on the way home in the evening. Maybe they want to have it on in the background while they’re at their desk, or while they’re on a jog. This is another way we want to tell our story, a way to connect with the people of Bakersfield and maybe let them know about things they didn’t realize we do for them every day.
