Having a great partner-WGTE

January 25, 2011

To Whom it May Concern:

WGTE has reviewed Peter Huston’s  proposal to produce an independent program on the subject of Emma Gatewood.  The proposed idea would offer a glimpse into the world of Grandma Gatewood, Ohio’s Legendary Hiker, and her courageous and optimistic spirit.  The show will explore how Gatewood was inspired by a National Geographic story on the Appalachian Trail and became the first woman to make a sola trek of the entire length of the Trail.  This subject matter should be of great interest to viewers in our area.  WGTE is pleased to support the proposed program as a broadcast partner.

If you would like to discuss WGTE’s support as a broadcast partner of the Grandma Gatewood story, please don’t hesitate to contact me at 419-380-4615 or via email at  darren_lashelle@wgte.org

Sincerely,

Darren LaShelle

Director of TV Broadcast Services
