January 20th was the presentation date to the winner of the 32” Panasonic LCD TV that was awarded by the Wayland Business Association (WBA) in support of WayCAM’s “Get to Know WayCAM” promotion. The TV give-away was the grand prize from the survey WayCAM conducted at Special Town Meeting, and that ran until the end of November. Town meeting attendees and many other town residents were invited to complete a survey about WayCAM’s performance and ways that WayCAM could improve its services to the Wayland community. Over 375 people participated, and the lucky winner of the TV was Ann Knight, who many of you know is Director of the Wayland Free Public Library. Ann’s name was randomly drawn at the WBA’s annual Holiday Party in December.
Ann is pictured here with Ken Isaacson, president of WayCAM (left), and Michael Abend, president of the Wayland Business Association. The presentation was made at WayCAM’s new studios, which are located, as of December 24th, on the new Wayland High School site, adjacent to the Field House. With the new site, WayCAM is much more than a TV station. WayCAM is transforming into a state-of-the-art Community Media Center, a resource for the whole town. A variety of courses in TV, video and studio production will be provided to the adult community, in addition to the classes presently provided by WayCAM to more than 100 Wayland students each year. WayCAM will be holding a community-wide Open House in Spring 2012, to introduce its new facilities and course offerings. Interested residents of all ages and backgrounds should contact Jim Mullane, Executive Director, at (508) 358-5006, email: jim@waycam.tv .
