Franklin County Fair Parade and Election Preparation

As you can probably imagine, most of our focus this week was on yesterday's parade. We have not forgotten, however, that there are Primary Elections coming up on Tuesday.

Alicia spent part of this week communicating with town clerks in the 2nd Franklin District in order to receive preliminary results soon after the polls close. GCTV encourages everyone to exercise their right to vote on September 14th and take advantage of all the resources on gctv.org to help with that process. Tuesday night we will post the Greenfield results on our website, around 9PM, and hope to announce the winner of the 2nd Franklin District State Representative Democratic Primary race not long after.

Speaking of getting things up on our website, due to technical difficulties, the Franklin County Fair Parade will not be available to view online until Monday. In the meantime, you can enjoy the slideshow below of photos we took during the event. The shoot was awesome, btw! Staff, crew, and viewers all enjoyed our coverage and many people told us that this was our best effort yet. Big thank you's go out to our Sponsors (Sandri Oil Company, The Hammond Family, Greenfield Savings Bank, The Bank of Western Massachusetts, Foster's Supermarket, Greenfield Farmers Cooperative Exchange, Greenfield Garden Cinemas, The Longe Family, New Fortune Chinese Restaurant & Sushi Bar, and Tire Warehouse), hosts (Russ Brown of "Dukes of Sports" and Tom Dillon of Dillon Chevrolet), and volunteers (Jimmie Bailey, Shawn Cromack, Faith, Susan Laing, and Sam Pyfrom). Also, the entire crew would like to thank everyone who threw us candy. :)
