Potpurri

Whew! Another busy week here is coming to a close and we have several interesting and informative things to tell you about, along with some visual aids.

First up, a couple of schedule changes. A new show has been added to our lineup: "Creating Cooperative Kids", which is produced in Enfield, CT but was requested by a Greenfield resident, aims to be a useful tool for parents. It will begin airing this weekend with time slots on Saturday at 9AM and Wednesday at 2PM. Those of you who regularly watch our Saturday morning lineup may wonder how "Creating Cooperative Kids" can air at 9AM because "NASA SciFiles" has been airing at that time. Because NASA is no longer producing "SciFiles", "NASA Connect", or "Destination Tomorrow", we've decided to follow their lead and focus on televising their new venture, "NASA 360". Taking the old shows out of the picture on Saturday morning enables "NASA 360" to move to 8:30AM and "Student News" to go to 10AM. We think you'll enjoy this streamlined version of Saturday morning programming so be sure to check it out on Cable Channel 15 this weekend.

Next, please don't forget to vote on Tuesday. If you don't know who the candidates are, or feel like you need more information about them, be sure to check out our election page. Also, make sure to check our website on Tuesday night, after 8:30pm, for election results. If you missed the debate that was held in our studio, on the 12th, you can watch it as part of our Video on Demand Player (in the "Elections 2011" category). In the meantime, here are a few pics from that event.

Finally, as part of our ongoing facility improvements, Philippe is getting a new office. In this photo you can see him hard at work in there:


Just kidding! As part of the work we're doing we needed to purchase a fireproof cabinet to store paint in. Doesn't it look spiffy?


That's it for this roundup. Have a great long weekend everyone!
