Vilas County teenager accepts Emmy
The show is produced by Discover Mediaworks, which is owned by St. Germain residents Mark and Lisa Rose. Hailey Rose, age 13, daughter of Mark and Lisa Rose, and a student at Northern Pines Middle School, and Amelia Mackey from Middleton, took the stage to accept the award in front of approximately 1,000 television professionals at Chicago's Redmoon Theater.
"We are thrilled and humbled to receive our 11th Emmy Award," said Mark Rose, CEO of Discover Mediaworks, "This year's Emmy Award holds a special spot in our heart since our daughter Hailey is a third-generation Rose to host a program that Discover Mediaworks produces. It's an amazing moment and family accomplishment."
"Into the Outdoors" is produced by Dan Bertalan along with executive producers, Mark and Lisa Rose. "The show explores a wide array of science, nature, conservation and environmental topics," the release states. "The episode receiving the 2015 Emmy Award, 'Extreme Survival Strategies' showcases the myriad of ways creatures survive harsh environmental conditions. The hosts of the episode, Hailey Rose, Amelia Mackey, Josh Busher, and Caroline Smith, take viewers on a journey to learn how animals ranging from bears to waterfowl to walleye thrive in the extreme weather that exists in the Great Lakes region."
"One reason the television series connects with kids is that it's actually hosted by kids, using interactive production techniques," said Lisa Rose, executive producer. "We are proud that our television series is getting kids off the couch to learn about nature while creating discovery-based learning that empowers kids to think critically about their role as future stewards of planet Earth."
Locally the show airs on Eagle River WYOW TV34 (ABC) and Wausau WAOW TV9 (ABC) on Sundays at 11:30 a.m.
