WHAS-TV

We are proud to be your home for the SEC! Today we celebrated with a "Live Blou Drive Thru" event - handing out all sorts of goodies! Thank you to those who came out to say hello and a special thanks to our sponsor Home Outlet Stores in Louisville! If you couldn't make it, don't worry - we'll be at Champion Chevrolet Buick GMC in La Grange on September 6th and Commonwealth Credit Union in Shelbyville on September 20th!

We had so much fun participating in the Kentuckiana Pride Parade! Seeing people of all ages and from all walks of life lining the streets and having a great time was good for the soul.

We don't do it for the awards - but it certainly feels great to be recognized. We are honored to have earned the Regional Edward R. Murrow Award for overall excellence. A true team effort. Thank you Kentuckiana for trusting us to share your stories!

What a day to celebrate a TOTAL ECLIPSE! I think we were all surprised by the beautiful sunny skies - the perfect scene for this rare event. ? ?? Our team here at WHAS11 has spent months planning for this day - everyone played a part in bringing our viewers a glimpse at history. And of course, we wanted to make sure those stationed back at the studio had some special snacks to celebrate the big day. Also - a big thank you to French Lick West Baden for being such great hosts.

Happy 74th Birthday to WHAS11! In true WHAS11 fashion we celebrated with food and BABY GOATS! ?? ??

In this industry - especially in the newsroom - your friends become your second family. So, it's only appropriate we share a delicious holiday meal together! The annual WHAS11 holiday part was a success - complete with a cookie exchange, trivia and a station gift!

We work hard, but we play hard too! Our annual holiday decorating contest kicked off today. The winner is announced next week. Which one is your favorite?

What an incredible morning! We premiered our Honor Flight documentary to a group of veterans featured in the film. These veterans allowed us to share their stories and allowed us to stand with them during some very vulnerable moments during their trip to DC. A huge thank you to photojournalist Jessica Farley who shot, edited and co-produced the documentary and who also had the idea for WHAS11 to host this special event. Thank you as well to Brooke Hasch who co-produced and narrated the documentary. If you are in Kentuckiana, we invite you to watch the documentary on Friday, November 10th at 3pm on WHAS11. Starting November 13th, it will be available on WHAS11+.

A BIG congrats to Eric King! Eric was the keynote speaker for the Nelson County chapter of the NAACP and was surprised with the city's Hometown Hero award! We are so proud of the work Eric does on TV and in our community. You can see Eric weekday mornings from 4:30-7 on Good Morning Kentuckiana!

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. October 19th is a day to wear purple to show support for survivors and to take a stand against domestic violence. The Center for Women and Families joined us on Great Day Live to talk about the importance of bringing awareness to this issue.
