WCA-TVHelen Chatel leaves Watertown Cable Access Television after 9.5 years as executive director.
Good day Watertown,
Today is my last day in the office at WCA-TV. As I reflect back on the 9.5 years here, I remember how much my life has changed and with it WCA-TV and Watertown. When I arrived we only went live with Town Council, Planning and Zoning and School Committee. We rarely covered subcommittee hearings. None of the high school sports were live. In fact one person covered 100% of the government meetings and 80% of the sports.
