LakeGeorge.TV, Warren County streaming video app, debuts May 1
Warren County’s new countywide video streaming channel, LakeGeorge.TV, launched Monday, May 1st with a growing platform of over 230 videos that detail local businesses, attractions and more.
Developed by Hood Communications, an affiliate of Look Media Resource of Glens Falls, LakeGeorge.TV (LGTV) was funded by Warren County occupancy tax proceeds to help visitors, prospective visitors and residents alike have easy access to a vast collection of videos about the myriad things to do and see in the Lake George Region and all corners of Warren County.
And because it is being funded through the occupancy tax program, it is free for visitor- and tourism-related business owners and organizations to participate and share their videos!
LakeGeorge.TV is dedicated to promoting the people, places, businesses and organizations that make Warren County a unique and exciting place, 365 days a year. Users will find videos featuring businesses, attractions and recreation areas large and small, categorized on the app for easy browsing.
LakeGeorge.TV is available for free on all digital devices, including smart televisions, mobile devices, web browsers and streaming players such as AppleTV, iOS/Android and ROKU.
Said Gene Merlino, Lake Luzerne Supervisor and Chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors Tourism Committee: “We are happy to announce LakeGeorge.TV is ready for residents, visitors and businesses to use and enjoy! You will find a wide variety of informational videos that detail many businesses, attractions and recreation areas from around Warren County, and the LakeGeorge.TV video library is growing by the day. We thank Hood Communications and our local business owners for making this new resource available in time for summer here in Warren County.”
