Dear CCTV Member,

You are cordially invited to attend the Annual Members Meeting of CCTV, Inc. on Thursday, January 8, 2015 at 7 p.m. in the CCTV studio at Concord Carlisle Regional High School, 500 Walden Street, Concord, MA.

This will be a short meeting with light refreshments to go over the financial and operational highlights of the past year, vote to elect board members, and to hear about Executive Director Tamarah Green’s exciting plans for 2015.  Yes, we will be moving into the new high school and the new CCTV studio in April, but she is also working on many new initiatives and plans to increase membership and programming on CCTV’s PEG channels. 

This also is the time of the year when we actively seek additional board members who are excited about CCTV’s mission to make local television and are able and willing to help govern the organization.  If you would like to be considered for board service or know of someone who would make a great addition to the board, please let us know!  

Carmin Reiss, Neville Webb and I are serving as the board’s Nominating Committee to consider board candidates for election on Jan. 8. If you’ve got good board candidates to suggest, please tell us. We particularly would like to add folks who have significant media technology, accounting, or management experience. 

We look forward to seeing you at the Annual Meeting!  Please come and get plugged into the good things that will be happening next year at CCTV.

Best regards,

Marilyn Cugini

President and Chair, Board of Directors 

This year CCTV is continuing it's tradition of asking you, our community members, to come into the studio and wish the rest the of the community ‘Happy Holidays!’

So get in your best festive mood and send a greeting to your friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Sing a song, read a poem about the season, or just come in and say "Happy Holidays." It's up to you! We will edit the pieces together and begin airing them on Channel 8!

In honor of Veteran’s Day, CCTV will be closed on Tuesday, November 11th.   We thank and support our troops for their service.

CCTV is participating in The 20th annual Coats for Kids winter coat drive.  Please bring your gently worn winter coats to CCTV (Located in the ‘I’ Building of CCHS) now through January 10th. Coats will be cleaned free of charge by Anton’s Cleaners and then distributed by social service agencies to those in need within the community.

What’s accepted?  Warm, winter coats that are in good quality and only gently used.  All sizes, especially XL and Pre-K sizes are needed.  Please do not donate coats with rips, tears, broken zippers, permanent stains, sweatshirts, vests or spring coats.
