“Catch the Science Bug” Series on PBS Rhode Island Receives Silver!
The “Catch the Science Bug” series on PBS Rhode Island has won a Parents’ Choice Silver Award!
The idea to create a series was presented to me in 1999. I was taking a class at Emerson College taught by Rex Trailer former host of Boomtown. One day after class, Rex suggested that I host my own children’s television show on science. This was like telling an aspiring high school hockey player that he could be the next Tim Thomas. I had no idea how this would all come together but had to try. Slowly but surely the pieces fell into place. I couldn’t be more thankful that I caught the Science Bug and went along for the ride. There have been over a thousand people who helped make Catch the Science Bug what it is today. Sending all of you a BIG THANK YOU!
Our next step is to reach even more children by making these episodes available on DVD. We will keep you posted on our progress via blog entries.
