CMTV Mission Statement - Periodic Broadcast & Bylaw Statement

Here is the text for a 60 second spot for periodic broadcast that lets the viewing audience know what CMTV is about.
The video is of a recent sunrise with a meadowlark's call in the background. The text scrolls from bottom to top across the screen.

Hopefully other spots are made with the mission and purpose presented to CMTV's audience.


The text for the spot is listed below followed by the original text of the current bylaws.

Hopefully over time there are plenty more spots presenting CMTV to the viewing audience so audience understands what CMTV is all about. Right now I doubt the audience has a clear understanding of what CMTV is about.

It would also be useful to put this text prominently on the website and refer to it periodically.
