Lincoln County Television & Media Center is non-profit, public access, community media for and about the citizens of Lincoln County, Maine

Hello Claire,

You never know what's going to pull in the driveway at the LCTV Studio! Check out this cool new ride that Maine Motorsports Hall of Famer Steve Leavitt brought to last week's filming of the next Vintage Racers Roundtable. We'll have the eighth episode of this popular series - with cohost Pete Silva, Chummy Brown, Rick Zemla, and Steve Leavitt - ready for you in a few weeks.

This week’s "All New, All Local" shows start Wednesday at 7:00pm with a new Damariscotta Chamber Chat. Host Lisa Hagen talks with Bernie DeLisle, Founder of The Peace Gallery, about the vision for the vibrant community space on Main St. in Damariscotta that showcases Veteran artwork and more. 

If it's Thursday, then the Wuzzup News Show is on at 7:00pm.

Friday night at 7:00pm, please tune in to watch the newest Community Conversations to learn more about the important role that United Way of Midcoast Maine serves in our community. Joining host Marva Nesbit this episode are Nicole Evans, Executive Director for United Way of Midcoast Maine, and Cindy Wade, President of LincolnHealth and a Board Member for United Way of Midcoast Maine. 

Last week, we promised you our LCTV Special about the Aug. 4 Lincoln Academy Linaca alumni music festival. Over a dozen musical groups and individuals are part of the two-hour “LCTV Special: 2023 Linaca Festival” show airing Saturday night starting at 7:00pm. 

To cap off the weekend on Sunday at 7:00pm, we're pleased to premiere the second episode of “Coastal Currents,” co-produced with Coastal Rivers Conservation Trust (CRCT). Just in time for Water Quality month, the episode centers on CRCT’s efforts to improve and maintain water quality.

LCTV Sponsorship Coordinator

We mentioned last week that we're looking for someone to join our team as a Sponsorship Coordinator.

To make it clearer, this person would help us by reaching out to current LCTV Sponsors and offering upcoming opportunities to have their business thanked on LCTV shows, sports, live streams, our website, social media, and at live events. Plus, they will reach out to new, interested businesses to join our Sponsor Community.

LCTV Sponsorship is a cost-effective way for businesses to show their support for our community, and keeps LCTV going.

It's a perfect role for someone who wants to work part-time, enjoys talking to people, and likes learning about local businesses and organizations.

If this is you, please call me at 207-632-4878 or email yank@tidewater.net. We'd appreciate you sharing this opportunity too.
