Best of Delaware a true celebration
Thanks to everyone who stopped by the WHYY/First/Newsworks booth at the Chase Center July 21st during the Delaware Today: Best of Delaware event.
The slide show is just a small sample of the people who came by to see Bill and Shirley at the WHYY booth. We were there to celebrate First as best TV show and Bill Cook as best television personality. For those who entered the Ken Burns Baseball DVD giveaway we’ll announce the winner on the July 29th edition of First. You can watch that at 5:30 and 10pm on Friday, or 11am Sunday, or Monday August 1st at 5:30. Don’t forget you can also see it on line at newsworks.org/delaware too.
WHYY is your source for fact-based, in-depth journalism and information. As a nonprofit organization, we rely on financial support from readers like you. Please give today.
