Livonia, MI, June 8, 2006

Bright House Networks (BHN), utilizing their innovative technologies, wants to help bring families closer together in time for Father's Day.

On Thursday, June 15th and Friday, June 16th from 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. the cable, Internet and phone service provider will have its video e-mail and digital phone kiosks available for free at their Livonia office location, so Metro-Detroiters can reach out to their dads in time for Father's Day, whether they are in Michigan, across the country or around the world.

Video e-mail services, powered by Road Runner, will allow visitors to send their own personal video greetings to their fathers or family members. Others can take advantage of the opportunity to use the company's digital phone service to call their loved ones for free to say hello, anywhere in the US, Canada, Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands or N. Marianna Islands.
