issues that were truly amazing.
He then introduced his friend and colleague from Adelphia, Kathy

the

totaling approximately $1000 per show.&n=
bsp;
Sponsorships can be trade of product of services, single show
sponsorships at $200 or series sponsorships at $450. Sponsors get 15 seconds of scree=
n time
per show. Each show will air
daily for 2-3 weeks. If you=

(work-Suzy’s Bar & Grill) or e-mail at Kathy@adelphiachannel.com=
