Normally only turned on during the Christmas season, the lights will remain on 24 hours a day as a sign of hope for the community.

“We launched the daily stream earlier this week as an additional resource for people to get the latest headlines on the virus from trusted, local news sources,” said Austin Kellerman, Nexstar’s director of digital content. “With all the misinformation out there, this is a way to get trusted information out to the public.”

“The old studio was gutted from top to bottom so it’s all new and we love it,” said Jay Huizenga, KELO’s general manager.

KELO was given awards for excellence in community service, newscast, program special and producing.
