August 18, 2024 - Hiking Rhode Island / Providence's Bead Mecca / Newport Polo

Rhode Island PBS Weekly

On this episode, we revisit Pamela Watts interview with former Providence Journal Reporter John Kostrzewa talking about his book Walking Rhode Island. Then, on our continuing Window on Rhode Island series we take another look inside the Wolf E. Myrow company, a bulk jewelry supplier in the heart of Providence, where one family has been selling beads, rhinestones, and much more for several decades. Finally, we take another look at Newport’s International Polo Grounds and capture announcer, William Crisp, who is on a mission, through passion and sarcasm – to elevate the equestrian competition to new heights.
