PORT ANGELES — Deputy Mayor Cherie Kidd donned an antebellum costume Wednesday for the filming of a pilot episode of an upcoming program that will promote Port Angeles.
“Positively Port Angeles” will air June 1 on Wave Broadband’s public access, education and government Channel 21 and on the Internet, Kidd said.
Subsequent episodes will air Thursdays at 7 p.m.
The show is produced by Gary Smith of Alpine Productions.
It is not affiliated with Peninsula Area Public Access TV, Kidd said.
“I’ll be focusing on the positive things that happen in the city,” she said.
“What makes me happy is promoting Port Angeles, and this opportunity came along.”
Kidd planned to describe the history of Port Angeles from locations such as Ediz Hook, the new waterfront park, the downtown underground and the MV Coho ferry terminal.
Future episodes of “Positively Port Angeles” will highlight Peninsula College, the international connection with Victoria, nearby attractions such as Lake Crescent and Hurricane Ridge, and signature events such as the Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival.
“It has so many possibilities,” Kidd said.
“We have so much to show off to everyone.”
Kidd plans to showcase “something wonderful” in the city every week.
To that end, suggestions for future episodes of “Positively Port Angeles” can be emailed to positivelyportangeles@gmail.com.
