POLICIES. STAY WITH US. NOW, A KOCO FIVE EDITORIAL. HERE IS PRESIDENT AND GENERAL MANAGER BRENT HENSLEY. ALL THIS YEAR, KOCO IS CELEBRATING 70 YEARS OF SERVICE TO OKLAHOMA. IN THAT TIME, HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO TELLING THE STORIES OF OUR COMMUNITY. 70 YEARS OF STORIES THAT KEPT YOU INFORMED. STORIES THAT CELEBRATED YOUR FINEST MOMENTS AND HIGHLIGHTED OUR GREAT STATE. ALL THAT WORK FOR 70 YEARS HAS BEEN SAVED IN VARIOUS RECORDED FORMATS AND OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS HAS BEEN DIGITIZED. NEXT WEEK WE’RE AIRING A SPECIAL PRESENTATION OF KOCO CHRONICLE ABOUT OUR 70 YEARS. WE FOUND STORIES THAT HAVEN’T BEEN SEEN SINCE THE FIRST TIME THEY AIRED DECADES AGO. WE HOPE YOU WILL JOIN US NEXT WEEK, SEPTEMBER 4TH AT 9 P.M. TO SEE THESE STORIES COME TO LIFE, TOLD BY MEMBERS OF OUR CURRENT TEAM. ALL OF THIS TO CELEBRATE THE RICH HISTORY OF KOCO, OUR EMPLOYEES, AND THE IMPACT THOSE STORIES HAD AT THE TIME, AND STILL HAVE TODAY. WE ALSO HOPE YOU’LL SEE IT AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK BACK ON THE MOMENTS THAT SHAPED US AND OUR COMMUNITY. IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO DISTILL 70 YEARS OF HISTORY INTO ONE HOUR, SO WE WILL CONTINUE TO SHARE THOSE STORIES ON OUR APP AND SOCIAL MEDIA CHANNELS IN THE MONTHS TO COME. THANK YOU FOR TRUSTING US OVER THE PAST 70 YEARS. IT’S YOUR TRUST THAT MEANS THE MOST TO US. I’D LIKE TO HEAR FROM YOU. EMAIL ME AT EDITORIALS AT KOCO.COM.
