The HorseTV Channel announced its October 27, 2005, debut date for full-time availability to multi-channel cable and satellite providers. The HorseTV Channel, announced and funded earlier this year, presents a full lineup of horse-related events and programming to an enthusiastic and rapidly growing, grassroots following across the country.

“This is a very significant and exciting time for us,” said George Greenberg, Chairman and CEO of The HorseTV Channel. “We’ve been building our core executive team, amassing and creating a compelling programming schedule, developing our marketing relationships with key organizations and affiliates and really digging in to prepare this channel for launch. We appeal to a significant broad-based audience across the country that until now hasn’t had a television home to call its own. As of October 27, we’ll be ready to welcome all of the audiences, sponsors, advertisers and retailers that have expressed a passionate interest in subscribing to and partnering with The HorseTV Channel.”

G Force Cable, the cable provider for Aiken, SC, is pleased to be one of the first affiliates to join The HorseTV Channel family. With 22,800 subscribers, Aiken is home to a vibrant and loyal horse-devoted audience.

“The HorseTV Channel is a perfect fit for our lineup,” said Bobby Vine, General Manager of G Force Cable. “The HorseTV Channel has an eager audience that we are helping to reach, and The HorseTV Channel’s support of both our local community and our cable system is tremendous. They are helping to build both our cable business and their brand at the same time.”

The HorseTV Channel will be distributed via the AMC-10 satellite, recognized as one of the premiere neighborhood locations for networks.
