Member News and Updates Happy Independence Day! We hope you get to be with family and friends on this very special occasion! Thank you so much to all of you who donated during the June pledge drive! Without YOUR donations, KMOS-TV could not continue to provide you with the programming we know you love so much. These include programming that focuses on muchneeded educational topics for children who are not able to go to preschool or enrichments classes - such as Word Girl, Pinkalicious and Peterrific, Ready Jet Go! and of course the iconic Sesame Street! Or programming that adults enjoy including those Sunday evening British comedies and dramas that we all enjoy so much!! Talking of British drama, recently I travelled back to my home town in the UK and was delighted to see and hear that Doc Martin, Mum, Endeavour and all of the British programming that we bring hume@ucmo.edu to you for your enjoyment, are as highly popular in the UK as they are right here in central Missouri! I was able to watch the latest Endeavour and let me tell you, there is crime, tension and personal change afoot amid the ‘gleaming spires’ and ancient city of Oxford coming your way. Lesley Manville, a British favorite, in Mum is a huge success and already enjoying rave reviews and a BAFTA and of course Martin Clunes continues to amuse and confound the locals in beautiful and scenic Portwenn in the southwest coast of England. Set your schedules for KMOS-TV! Nicole Hume Assistant Director for Strategic Partnerships
As it is now summer the KMOS-TV development team continues to be on the road reaching out to engage with the central Missouri community. For those who attended our recent Great American Read! screening in Columbia at Daniel Boone Regional Library we hope you enjoyed yourselves and perhaps you are reading one of those engrossing books from the list of 100. Everyone is free to check out our web page to see the list! We will continue to be visiting places in central Missouri this summer and fall, so if we are in an area near you, do come and chat with us about your favorite read and we will take a selfie (with your permission) for our social media pages! This month we will be heading to Clinton to the Ol Glory Days, a 3-day event celebrating Independence Day! We hope we see you soon!
