Maine's First Television Station Serving Maine since 1953 WABI-TV, Bangor, officially signed on as Maine's First Television Station on January 25, 1953. The station was launched by former Maine Governor Horace A. Hildreth. Hildreth had earlier acquired the license to Maine's oldest radio station, WABI-AM, and the call letters conveyed to the new television station. Originally a multi-network affiliate (CBS, NBC, ABC, and Dumont), TV5 began as a primary NBC affiliate, switching to CBS primary a little over a year after starting up (while still carrying ABC programming – shared with WTWO (WLBZ), and becoming an official full-time CBS affiliate in 1959. Anecdotally, we understand that the first full program aired on the station was a filmed episode of the syndicated series “Boston Blackie” starring Kent Taylor (several viewers recall that this is a fact, but we do not have a record of the broadcast log). TV5 was home to Bangor's “Bozo the Clown” and many other local favorites. Members of the “baby boomer” generation of TV5 viewers have fond memories of the annual Santa Claus shows (“Santa's Workshop” & “Santa and His Friends”) of the 60's and 70's. Years after the station stopped producing the Santa shows, local area post offices continued to direct mail addressed to “Santa Claus, North Pole” to the Bangor studios of WABI-TV. In addition to weeknight local newscasts at 5, 6 and 11, and weekend evening newscasts at 6 and 11, TV5 is home to the area's most popular morning news program, the locally-produced TV5 Morning News. In September 2007, with the addition of a secondary digital channel, WABI DT2, affiliated with The CW network, TV5 added another original half-hour of weekday live, local news at 10:00 PM. WABI-DT2 also provides delayed broadcasts of TV5 News at Noon at 12:30 PM, and a half-hour segment of TV5 Morning News at 7:00 AM weekdays. WABI-TV added an additional channel in 2015. DECADES affiliate WABI-DT3 soft-launched on Thursday, September 24, 2015, at 2:30 PM. A few “bugs” had to be worked out the first two days on the air, but the station was up and running well by the weekend. The official launch date was October 1, 2015. TV5 also has a long history of live local public affairs and local sports broadcasts and is also to the local station for Maine's only late night local talk show, The Nite Show with Danny Cashman, which airs Saturday nights at 11:30. TV5 is proud to help local communities and public service organizations celebrate “The Spirit of Maine.” The station participates in a number of community initiatives throughout the year, in partnership with local service organizations, civic groups, and citizens groups.

The Waterville Area Soup Kitchen is pleased to announce the opening of The Lighthouse, a new community meals program that will be located at 38 College Avenue in Waterville, across the street from the Post Office. Beginning on Monday, May 2nd, volunteers will serve a full hot lunch on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays – the same three days that the Waterville Area Soup Kitchen has been serving meals downtown since November 2020. Doors will open at 11:00 a.m. and lunch will be served from 11:30 to 12:30. Following a start-up period, we plan to extend lunch service to six days per week.In addition to providing a nutritionally wholesome meal, The Lighthouse will function as a place where people can expect to find a welcoming smile, get out of the weather in winter or summer, chat with old friends or make new ones. The space will also be available for use by the City as an Emergency Shelter. Formerly the End Zone sports bar, our new home is owned by Rita LaCroix and is the home base for Rita's Catering. Waterville Area Soup Kitchen President, Carla Caron stated, "We are beyond Grateful that Rita is willing to allow the Soup Kitchen to use her facility. The location is perfect for our Guests and the seating area is just right for the friendly atmosphere that we want to provide. We plan to make some upgrades to the kitchen that will enable us to provide quality meals for up to 100 people." Ms. LaCroix is also the owner of Rita's House of Pizza in Winslow. Since its formation in the summer of 2020, the Waterville Area Soup Kitchen has served over 5000 meals in the community. Because of the constraints imposed by the pandemic, those meals have been distributed at outdoor locations. Despite limitations, the enthusiastic cooks at Waterville Area Soup Kitchen have provided hearty meals which included a tasty hot soup or stew, a sandwich, a piece of fruit or dessert and a bottle of water. The meals were prepared at St. Marks Episcopal Church in Waterville, which graciously permitted the use of their kitchen facilities. Many of Waterville Area Soup Kitchen's volunteers are veterans of the former Sacred Heart Soup Kitchen that closed when the church was put up for sale in 2020. That organization provided a meaningful inroad in the effort against food insecurity in Waterville for almost 40 years and people were saddened to see it end. The Waterville Area Soup Kitchen is proud to be carrying on this tradition started so many years ago. Waterville Area Soup Kitchen is a registered 501(c)(3) all-volunteer non-profit that is funded through the donations of numerous individuals and many local businesses and civic organizations. Special thanks to Kennebec Savings Bank for their generous support and advice. Waterville Area Soup Kitchen is a member of the Maine Association of Non-Profits and Good Shepherd Food Bank. Donations can be made online at www.watervilleareasoupkitchen.com or by mail to Waterville Area Soup Kitchen, P.O Box 1494, Waterville, ME 04903You can visit our website or find us on Facebook.***The Waterville Area Soup Kitchen is looking to expand its volunteer pool. Our lunch service at the Lighthouse grows steadily. At present, we typically serve upwards of 130 meals each day. Depending on the menu, each day's operation requires up to 11 people on hand. Regular volunteers enjoy camaraderie with each other and the guests who join us each day for a great meal and some lovely social interaction. If you've ever thought about making a significant contribution to the welfare of your neighbors, here is an opportunity to do great work without spending a penny. Even if it's just one day per week, if you can spare about 2 ½ hours – between 10:30 and 1:00 - on any weekday, we can probably use your help.

The Redington Museum is owned and operated by the Waterville Historical Society in Waterville, Me. It is made up of members from the comThe museum is housed in a handsome two story home built in 1814 by pioneer Waterville settler Asa Redington, a veteran of three enlistments in the Revolutionary War and a member of George Washington's elite Honor Guard. After the revolution he developed the water rights at Ticonic Falls and with his sons Samuel and William established a thriving flour mill on the banks of the Kennebec River. The father of six sons and three daughters, Asa built this substantial home for his son William. Fashioned of great hewn timbers, all hand pegged, it still features the original spiral staircase, fireplaces with period woodwork, and floors of wide pumpkin pine. The newel post in the entrance exhibits the "contractor's peace stone," a small smooth polished stone signifying in Colonial times that the project had been completed to both the owner's and builder's satisfaction. Today five rooms are furnished with antiques of the late 18th and early 19th centuries from the Redington family, the family of pioneer attorney Timothy Boutelle, and from other early local families. The house has been open to the public as a museum since 1927 and was entered in the National Register of Historic Places.

WMHB's beginnings originate to Radio Colby, a weekly radio show aired on WTVL, a Waterville AM radio station. Beginning in 1949, Radio Colby featured Colby news, trivia, and favorite new music. Much of the same type of material that was broadcast on the radio show is now available on the “Inside Colby” podcast, a production by the Colby College communications office. Radio Colby on WTVL would be discontinued in December 1957. Given Radio Colby's popularity, students wished to further develop campus broadcasting. In the Spring of 1955, Radio Colby went on air as 600 K.C. AM, a carrier current station. Being a carrier current station, the call letters were arbitrary, and KCAM referred to ‘K Colby AM'. Students could listen in by attaching a cable from their radio to radiator pipes or ground wire of the electrical system. The station broadacst originated in the veteran's apartments (temporary housing created for the returning World War II veterans) and could be heard on the eastern side of campus including the residences which were at the time fraternity houses. The veterans apartments were demolished in 1957, and Radio Colby went silent. Radio Colby came back in 1964 on 610 kHz carrier current. Broadcasting from Roberts Union, the new station could be heard almost all around campus. Radio Colby began to develop from a novelty into more of a full featured radio station, featuring both news and music. This increase in development led the station to apply for a 10 watt Class D Noncommercial FM license in 1973. Radio Colby incorporated as the Mayflower Hill Broadcasting Corporation, a separate entity from Colby College and governed completely by students. In 1984, WMHB upgraded to 110 watts effective radiated power, increasing its radius from the immediate Waterville area to the surrounding communities and continued as a mainly on-campus feature, although community support began to grow over time. In the mid-1990s WMHB began a new chapter in its existence. The station began to structure itself more like a public radio station rather than a campus club. These developments increased as time went on, and in January 2001, WMHB first began to stream its content on the Internet. Due to royalty battles, WMHB had to pull its webstream down shortly after, but WMHB re-instated webstreaming in 2002. Over time the web became a major aspect of WMHB's listenership base, attracting listeners from all over the world as well as an increased number of Colby students. Beginning in the fall of 2007, station staff led a dramatic digital renovation. Previously, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act had prohibited WMHB from broadcasting online unless there was a live DJ in the studio to update playlist information, but the incorporation of a digital music library allowed WMHB's webcast to run twenty-four hours a day when no DJ was in the studio. In March 2007, WMHB was added to the iTunes radio tuner, as well as the radio tuners of Windows Media and TiVo. In 2018, WMHB began to re-vamp its automation software and scheduling by switching over to StationPlaylist. Alongside the new automation software, there also began improvements to the new wordpress website.
