Bristol on Chronicle TV Show in Boston


Below is a link to a 4 minute video that was aired recently on Channel 5 TV in Boston about Bristol! Thank you to Joan Roth for being such a warm and informative ambassador (your velvet voice really comes across well on TV!) and to TV hostess Cindy Salvato for bringing this special RI Walking Market Tour to the attention of the Chronicles TV program. This particular tour is a RI Culinary and Culture Walk (http://www.rimarkettours.com/) focusing on Bristol- visiting many restaurants as well as museums in our area including Linden Place and Coggeshall Farm.Here's the video link:
PS This is how the RI Market Tours describe Joan Roth on their website. (If Bristol ever gets an oral history project started, Joan Roth should be one of the top picks to begin it!)

Joan Roth — She teaches, she sings, she's an artist and musician, she's a historian, and is teased by her friends as being Bristol's unofficial Mayor; and now she's your tour guide. Joan Roth is a native Bristolian and taught school in Little Compton and Bristol. She heads the music series at Linden Place, which runs October thru May, and served, at one time, on the board of the Youth Orchestra of the RI Philharmonic. Joan loves to tour people around Bristol and has great stories to share with you; you'll love meeting her.
