Bedford TV held their Annual Meeting and first ever Awards Party on Friday, November 4th. The event, held in the Great Room at Old Town Hall, was a celebration to recognize the many volunteers that help out at the station. This red-carpet event brought the whole BTV community together, from the people you see on TV, to the people behind the scenes. These awards were all about celebrating and appreciating the hard work of the many volunteers involved with the station.
