Join our host KT Sunshine on this episode of Community Beat where she sits down in our studio with Heather Kimball who is running for County Council District 1. Our new PulseTV series, Community Beat, was born out of a need to help Big Island residents connect with one another on a real level. From politicians to small business owners to concerned community members, we want to give a voice to anyone who needs it. As BigIslandPulse.com’s online presence continues to grow, we have opened up our film studio and invite you to come in, sit down, and talk story. Stay connected and let the world hear your message!
