For five years running one of WGTS’ biggest events is the Summer Concert Series at Tysons Corner Center. Because of current rules regarding COVID-19 the station couldn’t invite thousands of listeners to come down the normal outdoor plaza venue. Through a partnership with the mall and a local mortgage company, the WGTS team was able to host the concert virtually. The WGTS team shot part of the concert in advance at the plaza at the mall. Part of the concert came from Matthew West’s “Story House”, and the rest of the concert was hosted from the WGTS video studio.

means Hospital.
People who saw that sign could assume that there was a place nearby with people who could help – people with the skills, the experience, and the commitment to take on the most difficult human problems.
