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. October 4, 2015 Mariners Kid Appreciation Day KOMO 4 TV promoted the Mariners Kid Appreciation Day taking place at Safeco Field. This particular game had front row tickets, autographed jerseys, prizes, and more. All for kids ages 14 and under. KOMO 4 produced and aired promos leading up to the event. November 2015 - January 2016 Woodland Park Zoo WildLights KOMO 4, KOMO Newsradio, Talk Radio 570 KVI, and STAR 101.5 were the exclusive media partners for the Woodland Park Zoo WildLights. This is a popular event targeted towards children since the zoo is covered in thousands of LED lights. KOMO 4 teased the season-long event and encouraged families to attend. November 2015 - January 2016 Bellevue Magic Season KOMO 4, KOMO Newsradio, Talk Radio 570 KVI, and STAR 101.5 were media partners for the Bellevue Magic Season series.

While Make-A-Wish kids wait for their wishes to be granted, it can be a long process. To make the kids feel special while they wait, they are often given little gifts provided by donations. KOMO Plaza employees and visitors can pick a gift tag and donate the particular gift that will end up going to a kid who is waiting for their wish to be granted. We promoted the giving tree in-station as well as on-air via interviews and we donated almost 100 toys to local kids in need.

All of the toys and money were given to clients of the Salvation Army: low-income families with children. All toys went to children in the Pacific Northwest for the holiday season. KOMO News produced and aired teases and covered the event throughout the day driving people to donate. Prior to the drive, KOMO produced and aired spots promoting the event.
