In hindsight - KHQ Tour in May

Thank you to KHQ for an amazing tour for Spokane Chapter members and non-members in May 2019.

We had a great group of professionals turn out for the tour and lunch. KHQ's News Director and Station Manager each gave a talk about how to work with the station.

Beverly Novin took the group around to for a station tour and let us pretend to be meteorologists and newscasters.

Fun was had by all!
