Here is the complete schedule of the Festival '78 (Join the Celebration!) Membership Campaign from PBS affiliate KPBS-TV Channel 15 in San Diego, CA from Saturday March 4th through Sunday March 19th, 1978 for 2 WEEKS as USUAL (PBS' Fourth National March Membership Drive since 1975). đź“ş đź’µ
16 DAYS OF SPECIAL PROGRAMMING DESIGNED TO INCREASE NATIONAL VIEWER AWARENESS AND SUPPORT OF PUBLIC TELEVISION!!
16 DAYS OF SPECIAL PROGRAMMING WILL CULMINATE IN A NATIONAL 28-HOUR MARATHON OF NON-STOP ENTERTAINMENT!!
NOTE: KPBS is conducting its usual local Membership Campaign called "KPBS Membership Days" but PBS' Fourth March 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 campaign during 1972 and 1973.
SO PRETTY PLEASE Let me know in the comments or questions or suggestions for any concern... DON'T HESITATE, COMMENT ANYTIME!!
