  Keeping Up on Community News & Information 


During this challenging and unprecedented time, we strive to serve you with local news, information, as well as locally-produced entertainment. We have LOTS of new local & statewide programming that we are putting out there. Much of it involves information related to the COVID-19 outbreak (community response, State response, & health tips), but that's not all. There is much more as well. Local shows can be viewed on the following:
  • Cable TV channels:  Go to the Schedules page of our website (okemovalley.tv/Schedules) to find info. & listings for our 2 local cable TV channels, daily schedules, & weekly program "grids" (to know what's on when)  website, & You Tube channel.
  • Video on Demand (on website): Local programs (and health info.from the CDC & State of Vermont) is available on our website - the 10-most recent programs show up on the homepage (okemovalley.tv). For a full searchable catalog of video on demand, go to the Videos page (okemovalley.tv/videos).

Check out okemovalley.tv for our community calendar / bulletin board (which also runs on TV, in between programming throughout the day). We invite community organizations & others to submit news & info. for us to post. Together, let's keep each other informed!
