As we approach International Women’s Month in March, WSAV and Custom Audio Video are recognizing the great contributions that women have made to our nation and local communities. 

Remarkable Women is part of a nationwide Nexstar Media initiative to honor the influence that women have had on public policy, social progress and quality of life.

In December, WSAV viewers nominated the women in their lives who inspire, lead and forge the way for others.

Of those nominations, WSAV has chosen four Remarkable Women to be profiled on air and online each week starting February 11.

Sandy Benson Owner of Custom Audio Video has helped launch the campaign online and on air to showcase her support of deserving women in our communities.

On Friday March 6, one local Remarkable Woman will be announced, and that woman will be considered for Nexstar Woman of the Year. She will  have the opportunity to travel to New York City to attend a special receptions where television talk show host Mel Robbins will be the  featured speaker.  She’ll also attend a taping of the Mel Robbins Show on Wednesday March 18, when Ms. Robbins will exclusively announce the Nexstar Woman of the Year.

The show announcing the winner will air during the week of March 23rd.
