< Back Devon Black Production Assistant Devon is a quiet individual who hails from the small town of Cobden and assists with the technical production of material the station creates for airplay. Devon studied audio engineering at college, and has applied his skill and passion at Valley Heritage Radio for more than a decade. He also hosts a country and bluegrass music program, in addition to voicing newscasts and our popular ‘Recipe of the Day’. ​He is most recognized by his terrifyingly all-natural evil laugh that strikes fear into the hearts of friends and foes alike. Do not fret however, he’s harmless. We think. Contact devon@valleyheritageradio.ca Previous Next

OUR DJs < Back Mary Cook Mary Cook is an award-winning broadcast journalist, an accomplished author, and a beloved storyteller. And she’s a Valley girl. Mary grew up in the Ottawa Valley and has shared those warm memories with audiences for years through newspapers and magazines – and on the radio. Her weekly “Mary Cook Stories” air on on Tuesday afternoons at 12:55 – and they take listeners back to a simpler time, with heart-warming recollections and a healthy dose of laughter. Mary continues to speak at events and at seniors’ homes throughout Ottawa and the Valley, to the delight of her legions of fans. Mary and her husband Wally live in Carleton Place. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Previous Next

OUR DJs < Back Tony Bove On any given Thursday night, Tony is praised by a handful of listeners, and cursed at by hundreds of others. Why, you ask? Because as our bingo caller, the winners love him. Those who didn’t have any luck don’t quite see him in the same light. In fact, he’s been told many times that he “didn’t call the right numbers,” while his response is always “you didn’t have the right card.” Armed with a great sense of humour and a zest for life, Tony is the man behind the microphone for one of VHR’s most popular programs. And even though the show is quite scripted because of time restraints, his personality still manages to shine through. Tony also volunteers his time and talents for VHR as a musician, and when he’s not performing around the Valley, he’s sharing his musical passion with the Capital City Chorus as music director. Tony and his husband Andy live near Pakenham where they enjoy the serenity, connection to nature, and sense of community that come with rural living in the Ottawa Valley. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Previous Next

Board Members < Back < Back Fay Kolpin Vice President Fay and her husband Hans moved to the Ottawa Valley more than 30 years ago and live just outside White Lake in a log home that they rebuilt themselves from an old and derelict log house relocated from the Stittsville area. Fay worked as a human resource professional for nearly 30 years – mainly in high-tech in Ottawa, but she also worked in non-profit and for the last five years before retirement at the Donnelly Automotive Group in Ottawa. Since retiring Fay has been very active in volunteer work in the Valley. She is vice-president of the Board of Directors for VHR and takes care of the human resources for the radio station on a volunteer basis. She is also an active Board member for the Arnprior Regional Health Foundation. Fay and Hans have three daughters and eight grandchildren, and after more than three decades in the area, are proud to call themselves Valley folk!

OUR DJs < Back Pat Watters Pat Watters was born in Bourlamaque Quebec. He has “been around” living in Val’Dor, Malartic, Barview, Malartic Gold Fields, Cornwall, Carp, Toronto, Fort McPherson NWT, Pembroke and in Douglas where he now resides. He graduated from York University and taught for 30 years finishing his career at St. Joseph High School in Renfrew. He is married, has six children and three grandchildren. He enjoys all types of music. He does however, have a preference for the blues. It was while living in Toronto that he developed a keen interest in the blues playing in bands and taking in as many live shows as he was able to. He had the opportunity to see several blues legends as they toured through southern Ontario. Pat plays bass guitar for a local hobby band called Mixed Nuts, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a bigger Toronto Maple Leafs fan in the Valley. ​ Got the Blues Pat has been a part of Valley Heritage radio since the beginning. His show Got the Blues began a month after the station went on the air and continues every Thursday evening at eight o’clock right after the bingo. Got the Blues is a two-hour weekly show which provides you the opportunity to listen and enjoy the blues. If you want to be more informed and exposed to this genre of music so that you can appreciate the blues, then this is the place to be! Blues has been portrayed as mournful and slow but as you listen to Got the Blues you will discover it is far more energetic and it rocks. It has been said, “The blues had a baby and they named it Rock ‘n Roll”! There are plenty of blues styles and you will hear a great variety on Pat’s show. Traditional to contemporary artists are played regularly and Got the Blues is proud to feature many of our Canadian Blues artists. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Previous Next
