Earlier today, I posted about the great videos Southborough Access Media captures for the Town. It prompted me to post another roundup of their videos.
In looking back, I realized that not only has it been way too long since I’ve done one – but I neglected to share a couple from prior to my last roundup mid-summer!
The six videos below run from oldest to newest, covering events and special programming from June through last week. Topics include educational presentations, feel good events, author nights, and even more painting lessons.
Note: The videos below are just SAM’s “features”. For the full set of videos, visit their YouTube page here. For specific coverage of town government meetings, see their government channel schedule.
To fit these in, I made the windows small. But you can click on the full screen icon in each bottom right corner to expand or click the links. You can also watch these SAM features on their public access tv channels: Verizon 38 and Charter 131. You can find that schedule here.
