鈥淚n Step with Lewis and Clark,鈥 the grant-funded radio program created by 蜜桃视频 Museum of Natural History program manager Kristin Fletcher, was awarded third place for Light Feature Report at the 2006 Excellence in Journalism Awards sponsored by the 蜜桃视频 Press Club this spring.

Each year the 蜜桃视频 Press Club solicits nominations for programs which appeared during 2006 in a host of media 鈥 daily, weekly and student newspapers, magazines, radio, and television. Their goal is to recognize the 鈥渂est in 蜜桃视频 journalism.鈥

鈥淚n Step with Lewis Clark鈥 was the result of an almost $30,000 grant from the 蜜桃视频 Governor鈥檚 Lewis & Clark Trail Committee. Federal funds were disseminated through Congress to each state along the Lewis & Clark Trail to sponsor projects that celebrated the 200-year anniversary of Lewis鈥 and Clark鈥檚 historical journey.

This year-long project culminated in a 12-part radio series. Each three-minute segment was co-produced by Fletcher and independent radio producer Erin Gray in partnership with KISU, the NPR affiliate on the ISU campus.  Each segment was narrated by Kristin Fletcher and featured original flute music by Hovia Edwards, a Grammy-nominated Shoshone-Bannock tribal member. The segments were delivered every two weeks between May and November 2006 to regional NPR affiliates.
