FiOS1, the local and community news station available to FiOS TV customers in northern and central New Jersey, will air its ‘FiOS1 News Now’ news program live Aug. 22 from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. on the boardwalk next to the Asbury Park Convention Center on Ocean Ave.

The live broadcast will culminate a day’s worth of activities that are part of FiOS1’s‘Make Safety #1’ campaign, a unique initiative in which the station has partnered with local community organizations to provide information and raise awareness about safety, such as weather and emergency preparedness, and family and cyber safety.

“This is one of the innovative ways FiOS1 is engaging viewers and reaching out to the communities we serve,” said Michelle Webb, general manager of FiOS1.  “Watching a newscast live will be a great experience for visitors on the boardwalk.”

The campaign’s activities kick off at 1 p.m. and include appearances by FiOS1 anchors, safety presentations and giveaways from campaign partners the American Red Cross – North Jersey Region and the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary.  From 2 p.m. to 3 p.m., visitors will be able to tape a message for FiOS1’s award-winning show, Push Pause, and will be able to get photographs taken with members of the FiOS1 news team from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m.  In addition, FiOS1 will be distributing free emergency kits and water.

FiOS1 New Jersey is Verizon’s 24-hour hyper-local news channel that has everything FiOS TV viewers need to know about the region.  The station includes local weather forecasts, up-to-the-minute traffic, as well as news, regional sports and feature stories.
