Retro: KPBS-TV Channel 15-San Diego, CA - (August 1977 Membership Campaign)-Complete Schedule- Friday August 19th through Monday August 29th, 1977

SOURCE: San Diego Union and San Diego Evening Tribune from San Diego, California, Times-Advocate in Escondido, California.
Here is the complete schedule of the August 1977 Membership Campaign from PBS affiliate KPBS-TV Channel 15 in San Diego, CA from Friday August 19th through Monday August 29th, 1977 (PBS' Third National August Membership Drive since 1975). đź“ş đź’µ
NOTE: KPBS is conducting its usual local Membership Campaign called "KPBS Membership Days" but PBS' Third August National Annual Membership Fund-raising and public awareness campaign, and it will include Membership Pledge Breaks between regularly scheduled programs, so I don't know if KPBS had another membership pledge campaign after the February 1974 Public Television Membership Week or before the December 1974 Awareness Week or before the 1975 and 1976 membership pledge drives, and any other membership pledge drive in 1972 and 1973.
SO PRETTY PLEASE Let me know in the comments or questions or suggestions for any concern... DON'T HESITATE, COMMENT ANYTIME!!
