New TV Show to Focus on Council Happenings, County Departments, and Beaufort County Culture


Beaufort County announced today that its newest television show “Beaufort County Compass,” will air tomorrow on The County Channel.

 

“We’re proud to introduce this new show to our residents,” said Monica Spells, an Assistant County Administrator for Beaufort County. “It provides them with access to parts of the County they don’t get to see every day. It also gives us a digital platform to showcase our unique community.”

 

The show includes three segments:

 

  • “County Capsule,” which takes a look at legislative happenings from Beaufort County government, hosted by Stephanie French of The County Channel
  • “County Spotlight,” which takes you behind the scenes of a Beaufort County department in each episode, hosted by Carizma Brown, Beaufort County Communications Coordinator
  • “County Culture,” which features a unique aspect of life in Beaufort County, voiced by Rob Lewis of The County Channel

 

Beginning with the show’s premiere at 8:30 p.m. Friday, March 17, “Beaufort County Compass” will air five times weekly: at 9 p.m. Tuesdays, 11:30 a.m. and 8:30 p.m. Thursdays, 8:30 p.m. Fridays and 11:30 a.m. Saturdays. The broadcast will air on local cable networks: Comcast’s Channel 2, Hargray’s channels 9 and 113, and Time-Warner Hilton Head’s Channel 63. The show also will air at those times on The County Channel’s website.

 

The first episode will feature a summary of the recent Beaufort County Council Leadership and Strategic Planning Session; guest appearance by Bill Love, Executive Director of Beaufort County’s Department of Disabilities and Special Needs; and a look at the live oak tree.

 

The County Channel is Beaufort County’s official public television channel broadcasting a variety of informational and educational programming about government programs and services, public safety, arts and culture, and the environment.
