On Thursday August 11th, 2022 our family was given a private tour of the WMHT studios south of Troy, NY. We met all the staff and saw all the various studio rooms - it was amazing and the folks there were very cordial and informative.

This room was amazing - this is the main TV control room. All the "boxes" on the dual screens are camera angles

Here we are in the main TV broadcast room
The vibe here was pretty awesome!

Hey - look at the silly family!
They even prepared lovely food/refreshments for us where we sat together with the executives and chatted about Dad, Mom and the impact WHMT had on our lives.
Needless to say it was a beautiful moment for us all and nice to know the contributions our parents have made to culture and education in the upstate area...
