Sunny Days: Meet the Founding Mothers of Ball State PBS

Sunny Days: Meet the Founding Mothers of Ball State PBS

WIPB (now Ball State PBS) traces its beginnings to an educational television program created for young children and the determination of the kids' parents that children in east central Indiana would be able to watch it. SUNNY DAYS introduces us to a small group of moms who helped Muncie acquire a public television station, which made its first broadcast on Oct. 31, 1971.
