Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). 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. On February 1, 2014 there was a problem with the automated system of our sub channel 2.2. This caused the regularly scheduled programs not to air from 7:00am to 8:30am. Those programs are EDGEMONT (E/I 13-16) at 7:00am, MISSING (E/I 13-16) at 7:30am and THE REAL WINNING EDGE (E/I 13-16) at 8:00am. When we realized there was a problem we notified the vendor for the automation and network used for this channel. The vendor was able to change the programming to include E/I children's shows to air in place of the three programs that didn't air. Those programs are DRAGON FLY (E/I 13-16) at 7:00am, MISSING (E/I 13-16), a different episode than scheduled at 7:30am and THINK BIG (E/I 13-16) at 8:00am. To alert viewers when and where these programs would air, programming crawls were aired at numerous times throughout the week preceding the airing of these programs in their second home on the sub channel. The problem was caused by moving the Children's block on the sub channel 2.2 from Saturday starting at 10:00am to Sunday starting at 7:00am beginning February 1. The reason for the move was to keep the children's programming from being interrupted by sports and to give this block better consistency. 7:00am to 10:00am on Sundays will now be the new permanent home for the Educational / Informational Children's Programming on WFMY's 2.2 sub channel. Non-Broadcast Efforts to Enhance Children's Education: WFMYs annual Food 2 Families drive was held in February. We partnered with the Boy Scouts in our market to collect food. The Scouts collected more than 148,000 pounds of non-perishable food for local food banks and pantries. WFMY continued the Read 2 Succeed program with local schools in Guilford County. The Good Morning Show team made weekly visits to local schools and shared an interactive program on the importance of reading.
