This was evident as filming occurred at their newly opened Lookout Point Park, a vibrant downtown park in Pocatello, Idaho, that just opened in June 2023. Revitalized with over a million dollar investment from Lookout Credit Union, the park has already proven to be a busy hub for local events and community gatherings. Filming also occurred at their administration building… a building uniquely mixed with colorful murals from a local artist, and bright paintings of the Idaho outdoor landscape.
The broadcast is scheduled to air in September 2023, on esteemed channels such as CNN, CNN Headline News, MSNBC, CNBC, Fox News, Fox Business Network, TLC, Travel and Discovery. Additionally, the episode is expected to be distributed to Public Television affiliates during the Fall of 2023.
