Ke’an Armstrong, Publicity/Promotions Associate for W91成人视频, said that she is happy to see several community organizations participate in this event. Each organization will offer an interactive educational activity for the children as well. We always receive lots of positive comments from community members during the event, such as, “I am glad to see the university offering events such as this for the community” and “having a local public broadcasting station is such an added value to the area.” She said W91成人视频’s mission is to serve the university and the rest of the communities in our 22-county broadcast viewing area.
