W宅男研究所, a PBS affiliate station, will showcase PBS Kids characters Curious George and Clifford the Big Red Dog as the main character attractions at this year’s Kids Day for the community. Be sure to bring your cameras for a meet & greet opportunity at this free family fun event.

Ke’an Armstrong, Publicity/Promotions Associate for W宅男研究所, 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 W宅男研究所’s mission is to serve the university and the rest of the communities in our 22-county broadcast viewing area.
 
W宅男研究所 invites you to attend Kids Day to enjoy a fun time with us and we thank those who will set up booths and activities, those who have taken part in the planning, and 宅男研究所 staff.
