The 8-18 Media journalists are interviewing local golf sensation Jordan Jurmu.
Stories are also regularly cast on two different websites. The Bureau was honored with an Excellence in Broadcasting by the Michigan Association of Broadcasters for their weekly radio spots. Besides local reporting the youth participated in a cultural exchange in Japan, have covered every political convention since 1992 from a youth’s perspective, have gone on numerous trips outside of the area to present at conferences, cover the TC film festival to name a few. We have over 75 trained members.
With support from its parent organization, the Upper Peninsula Children’s Museum, and its strong media partners: Marquette Monthly, The Mining Journal, Q107-WMQT, and WNMU Public Radio 90, the bureau’s young journalists deliver to adults the unique and vital perspectives and insight of children on important issues such as health, education and politics. At the same time, the program allows for natural mentoring opportunities through the interaction of story teams made up of older and younger kids.
