Cable TV Focus Groups for the Fall River Community @ Spencer Borden Elementary School
May 16 @ 3:30 pm – 5:30 pm

Nonprofit organizations, schools, and municipal governments throughout the country are using emerging technologies provided through their local cable system to communicate, educate, and distribute information.  Would you like to have the same resources in Fall River?  You can help make it happen by taking part in a community meeting this May.

Next year, the city of Fall River will be renewing its cable contract with Comcast, and Fall River Community Media, FRED-TV, and FRGTV are conducting focus groups to collect public input for use in the negotiations.  This input will better position the city to pursue opportunities to enhance cable service, community media, and technology in Fall River over the next ten years.

Three focus groups will be held at Spencer Borden Elementary School.  Attend the one most convenient for you.

Wednesday, May 16
3:30 p.m. — 5:30 p.m.

Thursday, May 17
2:00 p.m. — 4:00 p.m.

Absolutely Incredible Kid Day @ EVERYWHERE
Mar 21 all-day

This year, we are hoping to make AIKD bigger and better. Hopefully, youth receive letters at home, in school and then in after-school programs.  .

Absolutely Incredible Kid Day – participating in AIKD is a simple, meaningful way to let youth know how much they are appreciated. Words are powerful – young lives are changed by this day and simple act of your encouragement, love, and kindness.  Letters or notes can serve as tangible reminders of how wonderful and special a child is…and we have seen in so many cases that children will re-visit these items so often in years to come.

Ideas For Absolutely Incredible Kid Day on MARCH 21, 2019:

  • Write a personal note or specific compliment to the special kids in your life – CLICK HERE for official AIKD stationary or make your own! That letter, text, email, video, or phone call can go such a long way!
  • Go out of your way to be mindful in offering extra words of encouragement and admiration to those children throughout the day
  • Inspire random and anonymous acts of kindness with those children
  •  Leave post-its with special messages everywhere for those children to find throughout the day
  • Utilize social media to challenge other adults to take part in AIKD
  • Share AIKD ideas and photos from the day on school on social media.

Look for the Facebook Challenge – Do you accept the challenge to tell three kids in your life how absolutely incredible they are?
