Mission Statement:
Falls Cable Television, the public television access station for the towns of Shelburne and Buckland and the village of Shelburne Falls, strives to maintain an informed public with coverage of local public and educational events, personalities and governmental meetings, some of which might not otherwise receive media attention. In this capacity, the station also serves as an archive for those events that are televised.
Falls Cable Television was also created to provide members of the station's viewing public access to the cable network through its television production facilities, which are available for personal use, under the supervision and guidelines of the Falls Cable Television Board of Directors and the station's staff.
Falls Cable Television is volunteer driven. Volunteers get the opportunity to learn TV broadcast technology by participating in the production of our in-studio programs. The studio is in the Mohawk Trail Regional School. For each in-studio show, jobs include operations director, camera operator(s), audio technician, graphics, and DVD duplication. Throughout the year a variety of school events are broadcast from the school auditorium as well, and we broadcast our cooking show from the school's cooking classroom.
We also broadcast live, on location, the meetings of the Shelburne and Buckland Select Boards. These broadcasts are produced by volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering, please call the station at 413-625-8371, or email us at info@fallscable.com
