A previously scheduled air date was cancelled due to editing delays. The thirty minute show will highlight the Henry County Courthouse and other sites around the court square in its Downtown segment. The production company creates television programming featuring the best family attractions in several states.

We very much appreciate the cooperation of the Downtown Paris Association, Commercial Bank, First Bank, the Iron Place, Jack’s Java, Jack Jones Florist and Gifts, Paris on the Square, the Toggery, Moon’s Jewelers and our local talent, City Commissioner Terry Fuller, Bruce Reed, Charles Hopkins, Gaines Hedges, Candy Hedges, Carter Hedges, JC Ramos, Susie Umstead, Norma Steele, Kasey Cox and McKenzie Cox.”
