This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. | KBAK-TV is proud to support the children of our community with a variety of community outreach projects. Many of our projects utilize our airwaves, in conjunction with the quarters' non-broadcast efforts: Bakersfield Teddy Bear Toss, Hometown Sports, 5th Quarter, SJCH Gospelfest, Shriners Youth Potato Bowl, Kern County Cancer Run, One Classroom At A Time, Making Strides Against Breast Cancer, Toys for Tots, National Weather Association - Kern Chapter and Club/School Tours. Each week, local public service announcements specifically designed to serve the educational and informational needs of children are scheduled to air on KBAK. A few examples are: Teacher Recruitment-this PSA encourages high school and college bound students to become educators as a career choice; College-this PSA encourages students to plan ahead and set goals to help further their education after high school, as many are not able to afford college and will likely decide not to attend; Mentor-this PSA provides information on how to become a mentor to a child in school. Our efforts are not limited to the examples listed, and more detailed information can be obtained in the station's public file. |
