Fwd: Media Advisory – Building Up Kitchener with Innovative New Programs and Services

Hey Nat,
I’ll come in for the event.
I’ll take some pictures, and record some audio.
Should I get bold and suggest an LTA?

Tomorrow morning I will be attending the following event to recognize our grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation. The grant will help improve a lot of things at the station as well as add video capabilities to the studio. If anyone can attend tomorrow, I am looking for someone to take photos or video. It’s from 10 to 10:30 AM.

Thanks,

Nat
