Board of Directors

Our community TV is headed by a Board of Directors composed of six members.

President: Lisa Morin
Vice-President: Jacques Rochon
Treasurer: Jean-Louis Soulard
Secretary: Raymond Laplante
Administrators: Joyce Pigeon, Nicole Champoux, Raymonde Héroux and Chantal Marina Larouche

These volonteer members are also involved with the well being of the organization. Whether their involvement is production, animation, or bingo, we count on their dedication and support.

Our Team

For production, we have formed a very versatile and dynamic team which divides tasks according to each of their schedules.

The employees

Jocelyne Gagné, coordinator, works full time in community television. Her work is focused primarily on program production, including video recording and editing. She is assisted by Stephanie Roy, a new part-time employee who is in charge of research and contacts with possible program participants. She is also a host.

Volunteers

Volunteer hostesses speak both English and French, allowing at ease while reporting. They are often looking for new ways to improve shows or conduct interviews of local artists. Every week, their smiling faces are brought to you in front of cameras: Lisa Morin, Kathryn Rickard and on occasion, Chantal Marina Larouche and Josette McCann..

Joyce Pigeon is the volunteer for the bingo from September to May.

Applications for permits and grants, as well as cash flow, are tasks carried out by our treasurer, Jean-Louis Soulard, with the help of our vice-president, Jacques Rochon.

Finally, we must not forget who is the creator of our website. Jacques Rochon has done considerable research and spent many hours working hard behind the scenes for us, creating the site to be viewed all around the world. We want everyone to know how very important this is and a special thank you to him for a job well done allowing our viewers to be able to take part.
