Raclin Jane Warner Dar Wiekamp* Honorary Life Director Dear WNIT Supporters: Now that we’re getting some warm weather and the flowers are blooming, I feel a new spirit in the air. People seem to have energy again! We’re feeling it at WNIT, too. I was recently on a long flight returning to Michiana, thinking about WNIT, and giving special thought to our children’s programming. Lately, I’ve been hearing from several parents telling me how much they appreciate the curriculum-based children’s programming WNIT provides, and how they observe their kids learning and growing from it. I am sometimes troubled by claims from some children’s channels that their programs are “educational.” Perhaps there are some nuggets of knowledge on those channels, but our PBS programs have an actual curriculum plan, with each episode building upon the other with achievement goals for these young viewers. In addition to the broadcast version of each program, children can go online and practice the lessons they learned on TV. Plus, there are apps for smart phones/tablets, and games. All this is free to kids, thanks to your support of WNIT. I wish every child could attend an early childhood development program, but that is not the case. Perhaps 15-20% of all kids get to attend. For the remaining 80%, WNIT is there for them. Regular viewers of PBS children’s programs score higher on pre-kindergarten tests than non-viewers. I’m a regular viewer in my office each day! The business model for other children’s channels is to carry advertising messages to “sell to” children. Our business model relies on donations so we may educate children. There’s a big difference. We all thank you for making this possible with your contributions to WNIT. If you are a parent or grandparent, and your children are watching television, put them in front of WNIT’s children’s programming. They will find safe viewing designed to inspire and educate, and make them laugh too. So many good things happen when you support WNIT. Thank you!

The series intends to provide viewers with interesting, informative and inspirational programs that invite them to look more deeply into their own lives and experiences.

Videographers Needed for Our Town: Dowagiac WNIT Public Television announced another in its Our Town series, this time focusing on the city of Dowagiac, Michigan. With the help of volunteer videographers and a little training from WNIT’s professional award-winning production team, ordinary citizens will become volunteer videographers. Armed with their own home camcorders, they will create a video scrapbook of the stories that make Dowagiac special. WNIT’s professional staff utilizes these video recordings, along with interviews held by the producers with the volunteer videographers, to professionally edit the stories and produce an hour documentary that reflects the emotional ties of the people who live, love and are passionate about Our Town: Dowagiac. If you or someone you know is interested in being a volunteer videographer for this project, please contact WNIT at 574.675.9648 or wnit@wnit.org. A videographers’ class will be held in Dowagiac in early June. At that time, volunteers will learn shot composition and how to select topics of interest, and they will choose their assignments.
