Wish my town had a channel like this, very cool idea to bring the community together and give people a platform.

I wanted to thank you again for the opportunity you have created for our kids.  This experience is more than the TV show.  Eight students who probably never would have talked to each other were excited to execute a plan. Know that you make a difference.
