Generally Speaking...
September may bring the end of summer, but fortunately it also brings the start of a new season of OzarksWatch Video Magazine. This season, hosts Dale Moore and Jim Baker will look at a wide variety of Ozarks traditions. From sorghum making to banjo playing, each episode is sure to enlighten and entertain.
As we enter the show’s 12th season, we are launching an effort to raise production funding for the program. Each year, we invest $50,000 in producing OzarksWatch. While a significant investment, it’s a good value when you consider all that is accomplished on that budget.
We document the people and places that make the Ozarks culture unique. We present those stories to homes all over the Ozarks-- and now all over the world through streamed episodes on our website. And finally, we preserve for future generations the stories of individuals, families and communities that combine to create the fabric of the Ozarks.
Through this fundraising campaign, we’re asking the community to meet us in the middle and help us raise half of our investment in the program. Our goal is to raise at least $25,000 in support of OzarksWatch by June 30, 2011. Soon you will begin seeing on-air spots requesting viewer involvement in this effort.
If you would like to make a special gift to the OzarksWatch fundraising campaign, please let us know. Thank you for investing in our effort to document, present and preserve the heritage of the Ozarks. We appreciate your support of OPT. |
