WAYCROSS SUMMER CAMP

Our video summer camp is in full swing, with our campers already putting together programs that will be cablecast starting in July. The kids are having a great time learning how to create video programs. In June, the campers traveled to Paul Brown Stadium, WLWT - Channel 5, Great American Ballpark (Reds vs Philly's) and the Pleasant Run Farms Pool. Campers took lots of video at each location - watch for lots of great programming once the editing process is complete!

Our 2010 summer camp program was made possible by the support of the Greater Cincinnati Foundation - Summertime Kids Program and the Alpha Kappa Alpha Educational Advancement Foundation.

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT

Chris Gaines

Chris Gaines is a newcomer to Waycross Community Media but has already started to leave his mark. The 44-year-old, former Akron Disc Jockey and current Forest Park resident joined Waycross in December 2009 when he took the Portable Production and Final Cut Pro Workshops, . He expressed his interest in learning the Robotics Camera systems. Training under Jason Grzegorek, Chris learned very fast and has since covered Forest Park and Greenhills council meetings, as well as Springfield Township  Trustee Meetings. He has volunteered as Videographer on single camera shoots and hopes to produce his own program in the near future.  We look forward to a long continued relationship with this valued volunteer.
