Grafton Community Television’s Christmas Open House is Sunday, December 7th

GRAFTON: Grafton Community Television and Charter Communications welcomes town residents to its Christmas open house featuring special holiday refreshments, and a tour of the town’s cable public access TV facilities on Sunday afternoon, December 7th from 1:00 PM until 4:00 PM. This event takes place at the Grafton Community Television studios located at 296 Providence Road in South Grafton.

At the Open House, GCTV offers Grafton families the opportunity to make a video holiday message for their loved ones and especially for those relatives in the armed forces.
The GCTV “Military Message” program assists any Grafton family who would like to send a little bit of Grafton to their active duty family members.

According to Kris McMullin, Grafton’s Public Access Coordinator, “This year’s Grafton Community Television Open House will be better than ever. With the addition of our new Broadcast Pix switcher and AJA High-Definition record deck, visitors will be able to create their own High Definition Holiday or Military Greeting, and leave with it on their SD card or USB Flash Drive. Visitors can still bring a DVD in for their greeting, but this new equipment will make it faster for people who do have SD cards or USB Flash Drives.”

GCTV staff will help families create their own 5 to 10 minute video greeting. The Christmas Greetings / Military Messages program is completely free of charge. For additional information, contact Kris McMullin, Public Access Coordinator for Grafton at (508) 839-2983 or email at GCTV@GraftonTV.org

Grafton Community Television provides programming on three distinct public access channels over the Charter Communications and the Verizon cable systems. Charter Channel 191 / Verizon Channel 34 provides general interest programming, Charter Channel 192 / Verizon Channel 33 broadcasts town government programming, and Charter Channel 194 / Verizon Channel 32 features school programming and high school sports events. The Grafton Community Television studios and offices are located at 296 Providence Road in South Grafton.
