Toledo Christian television station WLMB-TV (Channel 40) will start a "Spring Movie Marathon" tomorrow to begin a fund-raising campaign to raise $183,000 over the next six months. The funds will be used for new operations expenses including a broadcast tower, a transmitter tube, and a master control center, according to Jamey Schmitz, the station's CEO.

The movie marathon runs through April 14 and will include prime-time broadcasts of films such as Where the Red Fern Grows, Last Flight Out, and Seven Alone.
