CURRENT EVENTS
MotorWeek King Midgets
At this year’s King Midget Jamboree in
Wisconsin—another great one—we were fortunate to have PBS
(Public Broadcasting System) on hand filming for a popular
TV program called MotorWeek that airs nation-wide and
internationally, with frequent repeats and is available on
various cable channels.
Dick Russ, Director of Publicity,
contacted PBS and arranged for them to attend the Jam. A PBS
producer and cameraman showed up Tuesday morning and spent
more than two days videotaping our King Midgets and people.
All that was for a planned four minutes of air time
on the show, which will be broadcast on various PBS stations
at varying times on or about
September 11, 2010. You’ll be amazed how much can be
squeezed into four minutes! If you miss it, watch your TV
Guide. These shows tend to be repeated frequently.
If you didn’t manage to attend this Jam,
the program will give you a taste of what you missed. If you’re not a member of the Club, you’ll realize you’re really missing out!
