From the Inside News 13 Blog, an invitation

Share

The Inside News 13 Blog just got cranked up, and I check it out every now and then just to see what’s going on, even though so far, there are no photos, no comments, no rss feed on the so-called blog. Still, some of the posts are interesting. I enjoyed the information from this post by WLOSer Todd Knaperek, who explained how members of the community can get a tour.

I’ve not seen the inside of WLOSers new location, nor have I seen their $4 million set they just installed about a year ago. I think Ashvegas should get up a group and get a tour. Whaddya think? Here’s how your group can tour WLOSers’ lair:

If you are a part of a group that would be interested to seeing the 
here are a few things you should know prior to requesting a tour: 

1. Tour groups should be at least five people and no larger than 25. We 
do not offer individual tours. 
2. The age and size of the group will affect the length of the tour 
program, but most last between 30 minutes and an hour. 
3. We invite students in 2nd grade and above as well as non-school 
related groups (ages seven and older.) 
4. Visitors under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult at all 
times. 
5. Please schedule your tour at least four weeks in advance. 
6. Tours are conducted between 9 am and 11 am and between 1 pm and 4 pm 
Monday through Friday. 
7. Please contact WLOS if your tour group is running late. 
8. No tours are conducted during holidays. 
9. Children’s groups must have chaperones at all times. 
10. Please give at least 48 hours notice for cancellations. 
11. If a news or weather emergency arises, WLOS reserves the right to 
cancel a tour. 

With that, if you and your group are still interested, you can schedule 
a tour by going to http://wlos.com/sections/station/tours.shtml and 
filling out the information form. A representative from WLOS-TV will 
contact you to set things up.

We’d be glad to have you Ash, sign up and set up a schedule and we’ll show you and your loyal readers what we have going on at the station. I’m sure many of our fellow WLOSers who are loyal followers of your blog (including me) would make it a fun time for all….maybe we can even work out a group photo with some talent…who knows.

See you there,

If you got a 3pm slot I’d be in.

Would love to join in on an Ashvegas tour group. I used to give them when I was at WLOS w-a-y back when, in the Battle House when school children wanted to see the news set and meet Mr. Bill. [OMG do I sound like an old-timer or what………..]

I’m in for the tour too. With a couple weeks notice I can probably schedule around any time you choose.

I’m totally up for a tour, and I could go any of those times, although preferably not Thursday mornings.
