How about a stay at a bed & breakfast where part of the weekend package includes a visit to the KOIN Local 6 studios and a behind the scenes tour of the PinPoint Weather Center?
That’s the way it was for these ‘treasures’ from Martha’s Place which is a bed and breakfast for those with developmental disabilities. The crew walked and rolled into our studio, asked a bunch of great questions and already knew a lot of facts about Koin Local 6 anchors and reporters. More than I did in some cases!
If you know a family that has a ‘treasure’ with developmental disabilities then check out Quiet Waters Outreach. It is one of my very favorite organizations because of the great work it does.
Thanks to the QWO crew for visiting Koin Local 6!

I think it is great to have the developmentally disabled up there i the studio. It is good public outreach!
Your friends at QWO says
We love Bruce and the KOIN 6 gang! Our visit was the best field trip ever. Thank you for warmly opening the doors to your studio and welcoming us. If you ever need a temporary weather person to fill in for you, I know of eight eager volunteers! Keep up the great work.
