  PAC 14 Inc., seeks Board of Directors applicants. Deadline Sept. 14.

 
Please support local 'Community Media'
& PAC 14 - Join Us today!
                  
           Our membership total as of today - 1,054!
   PAC 14 - celebrating our 11th anniversary! With your support we can take a major step forward in 2010.
   Please make your support for PAC 14 known, share your support in public! Send us your comments, send
   editorials, and send letters of support to our City and County leaders.

   If you worry, as we do, that one day all you see and hear on TV will be controlled by one or two entities, who
   will have the power to dictate everything that is produced (or not produced!) or said (or left unspoken!), then
   support local non-commercial PEG Access! It is the last truly publically accessible 'voice of the community'
   as spoken (produced by) the people of each local community across the country. PEG Access nationwide -
   including PAC 14 - serve our communities with great desire and pride. "We The People" make our Country
   and our local communities strong! Volunteer - Join us!

   If PEG is de-funded, or written out of existence, then where will you turn to see the type of programming
   PAC 14 has delivered over the last 11 years...our history, our topics, our debates, our meetings, the shows
   that highlight the good in our community; the same shows that have a 'home' here at PAC 14 without the
   fear of commercially viability. What we hear from our community is a call for 'more' local programming -
   not less - not Delaware news or more satellite feeds! No, we hear a call for more local educational and
   informational programs, expanding coverage to include town hall and other governmental meetings, the
   Arts, historical, multi-cultural topics, lectures, on and on. We want this too! Success is in your hands,
   we can't deliver any of this without your support, your volunteer spirit, funding and facility.


 Support P.E.G. ACCESS and local Community Media!
 
Help Preserve Community Access Now - support the Community Access Preservation Act!
 
On October 8 Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin filed the Community Access Preservation Act - HR 3745,
   which, if enacted, would preserve and protect PEG access channels in four ways. The Alliance, along with
   NATOA, worked with Congresswoman Baldwin to craft this bill. Click on HR3745 link to learn more!

  PAC 14 is looking for a few good 'Producers'!
   We're flattered by the many calls PAC 14 recieves requesting coverage (to tape) local events. It's good to
   know that our community looks to PAC 14 as the 'go-to' source for local Community Media. That said, we
   remind everyone that we're a 'Public' Access service - with very limited staff. The mission of P.E.G. Access
   TV is people-power, people producers. Maximum benefit is achieved when citizen volunteers step up and
   use our 'free' resources, help us cover 'more' events and create increasing amounts of local programming.
   Simply put, the tools are here and free - VOLUNTEERVOLUNTEER - VOLUNTEER - people power!

  PAC 14 Streaming LIVE!
   PAC 14 STREAMS LIVE all of our video programming. As our daily line-up of programming is televised it's
   also simultaneously streamed LIVE...click on the RED LINK at to of this home page. PAC 14 hopes to one
   day archive many of our programs. Some videos are now offered as part of our DDHT initiative. Funding
   and technical resources are needed to fully implement these additional community friendly services.

Community Support
"Whenever I appear on a PAC 14 program, I am always surprised and pleased at the number of people who say, "Saw you on TV last night." PAC 14 plays a vital role in Wicomico County because it brings government to the citizens...particularly in its coverage of all Wicomico County Council meetings. I am also impressed at the "can-do" attitude of Mike Goodson and the PAC 14 staff despite the station's financial limitations."    
  - Richard M. Pollitt, Jr., Wicomico County Executive " 

Many PAC 14 supporters offer  TESTIMONIALS - let their words inspire you to join PAC!
