For viewers who want to learn more
Many communities offer a package of complimentary materials to cable viewers. The offer is usually made using the tag lines on their cable shows and listing a local phone number for viewers to call in their request. In some cases, the tag line tells viewers to pick up the packet at a local business or store. The business or shop is happy to be involved, as it brings them publicity and customers, and the viewer can pick it up easily, as well.
In addition, there is now a toll-free number you may list for those requesting a gift packet. It is 888-497-3223. You may use this in your tag if you wish.

From Toronto:
The background music they use is from CD "Trees of Gold", titled " Trees
of gold" by John Adorney. Background with shades of indigo and purple. Music available at www.eversound.com.
They also have voiceover, a good idea because some who can understand English by listening, are not able to read English, especially if there are non-English speaking members of your communities.
Please customize for your own need and preference.
These appear after the broadcast is over, as time allows.
