Public Invited As Grafton Community Television Plans June 24th Live Broadcast
From Grafton Common

 

GRAFTON: Grafton Community Television invites town residents to join them for a
live broadcast from the historic Grafton Common on Wednesday evening, June 24th.
The Two Guys Who Like To Talk Show, an hour long program hosted by GCTV
producers Rick Schultze and Bill Robidoux, will originate live from the Grafton
Common bandstand from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM. There will be an opportunity
during20the hour program for guests who are part of the Grafton Common audience
to make comments and ask questions.



According to Rick Schultze, who also serves as a member of the town's Cable
Television Oversight Committee, "We hope that many Grafton residents can join us
on the Common for this live broadcast. This is the second year we’ve been able
to take our i n studio show outside and it’s great to be able to share this
with our local viewers. Doing a live broadcast from the Common's bandstand is
something that is not done all
that often. The June 24th broadcast not only showcases the Grafton Common but
also highlights the many production capabilities of Grafton Community
Television."



Perhaps the most photographed town common in New England, the centerpiece of the
four acre Grafton Common is its bandstand (also often called a gazebo) built in
1935 to film Eugene O'Neil's "Ah, Wilderness." The June 24th live broadcast from
the Grafton Common is made possible with the cooperation of Charter
Communications who are providing use of their mobile production van. Questions
about the Wednesday, June 24th live broadcast can be directed to Grafton
Community Television Public Access Coordinator Danielle DeLucia at 508-839-2983
or e-mail: GCTV11@...

access channels in the Town of Grafton over the Charter Communications cable
