 On the job!! - WOWL students, Evan Pelletier and Amanda Cyr, filming the Young Author's awards ceremony at the Elementary School on May 13, 2009. With 30 students enrolled in the course, over 150 local and town events have been filmed again this year. Great work!!
December 1, 2008 - Channel 16 students are still not allowed to film school board meetings with school equipment.
Breaking News:
Last night (7-28-08) the Madawaska School Committee voted 4 to 1 to no longer allow the WOWL students to film and station staff to subsequently air the Madawaska School Committee meetings on our local access station. We are disheartened by this decision and are awaiting further information regarding the legality of their vote. Please read the last paragraph of this section to understand WOWL's role in our community and how students support the station.
Our editing station and newsdesk!!
Welcome to WOWL,
Madawaska's student supported local access television station
operating on Channel 16 in the Time Warner cable system. Channel 16 is
located at Madawaska High School and is situated in the old band room
between the gymnasium and cafeteria. This unique location allows for
easy video taping of school, community, and government events within
these important and often used public rooms. WOWL operates a NEXUS playback system to provide 24 hour service to Time Warner subscribers from Allagash
to Hamlin reaching approximately 4,500 households.
Summer 2008 - Our
viewers may have noticed that WOWL has remained operational again this
summer. Our clerk, Deanna Levesque, along with help from our 2nd year students have been busy video taping local
events and meetings, along with editing material for presentation on
Channel 16. Please continue to send PSA's and other programming ideas
to our email links below. We plan to continue operations through the
potato harvest recess.
February 2007 -
Channel 16 has recently been upgraded to a fiber optic signal due to the
efforts of Time Warner Cable. WOWL would like to thank Time Warner for
their prompt attention at getting us back on the air. Viewers should
notice an improved audio and video signal from the station.
Public Service Announcements
air daily at the end of the program for that day. Please feel free to
announce your community or school event by emailing our Channel 16
clerk, Deanna Levesque, at (click here) or by emailing teacher Colin Jandreau (click here).
Include the following in your email:
WHAT, WHEN, WHERE along with any other important information for the
notice. Most PSA's run until the time of the event or, for ongoing
notices, until we are asked to remove them.
The Community Television of Maine website can be visited by clicking here. The
mission of CTAM is to advance democratic ideals by ensuring that people
in Maine have access to electronic media. In order for democracy to
flourish, people must be active participants in their government,
educated to think critically, and free to express themselves. Students
enrolled in The Community course are
required to serve the Madawaska area by video taping events outside of
the school day, including but not limited to: government meetings,
school sports, community events, and other school activties.
Madawaska's residents benefit from this student service by viewing
local programming over Channel 16. Government meetings and other programming air on a schedule with our digital playback system. Look for the schedule after the PSA's have looped.
