Tower in Jamestown

On a chilly October day in 2003 a group of community volunteers from the Jamestown, New York came together with their camcorders and spent the day videotaping the people, places and happenings of the Jamestown area.

They came back with some great pictures and stories that WNED-TV edited together to create this video scrapbook, Our Town: Jamestown premiered Monday, December 1, 2003 at 8 pm. Touring this quaint area, nestled in beautiful Chautauqua County, viewers explore nature and outdoor activities; take a closer look at the city's architecture, theatres, and brick streets. Jamestown community members share their affection for their town's history through monuments and museums, and pay tribute to some of the area's most famous natives, Lucille Ball, Roger Tory Peterson and Robert H. Jackson. Volunteers also highlight some of the everyday activities and regional gems that make everyday in Jamestown special.
