I am closing Ascension on the Move. This announcement is not a happy one for me because I have truly enjoyed producing programs about the wonderful culture, heritage, lifestyles, and events of the people of this exciting and rapidly growing area.

I made the decision because I believe the best place for local programs about Ascension needs to be where it was from the beginning, on the government access channel in Ascension. It is the programming is done on other government access channels in many areas.

A policy was set by the parish president (Ronnie Hughes) to no longer air local programs and agreed to by a the votes of the parish council.

This channel is paid for by fees from you, the cable subscribers with the Parish Council. The Parish Council is your franchise authority. If that is the decision you respect, then so must I.

I am grateful to the business community for its financial support of Ascension on the Move.   I was thoroughly honored by you the fans and viewers for your support of the programs. I have been thoroughly enriched by the stories and occasions of which I have been a part of in Ascension. I have met countless wonderful friends and I will always feel like an adopted daughter of Ascension Parish.
