'Good Morning America' to film in Placid

LAKE PLACID — A TV crew from ABC's "Good Morning America" will be in Lake Placid Saturday to film the flurry of holiday activities there and in the surrounding communities.

The ABC crew will cover the Lake Placid Holiday Village Stroll and tree lighting, Main Street carolers, the Whiteface Mountain Ski Center in Wilmington and the hundreds of thousand of colorful lights that twinkle along the shores of Mirror Lake.

At the tree lighting in Mid's Park, Mayor Jamie Rogers will flip the switch to light a 25-foot balsam fir Christmas tree adorned with thousands of lights. Church bells will chime throughout the village at 5:30 p.m. to mark this special occasion, while the Lake Placid School Choir presents a medley of holiday carols.

The feature is scheduled to air on "Good Morning America" from 8 to 9 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 14.

Here's a link to the segment ... it's more of a "tourism commercial" than anything else, but at least it was on-air and will hopefully help the area out!

Thanks for that.

Although, I'm still scratching my head about why the marketing director of the Mirror Lake Inn is doing the lead along with a blurb from an old pr guy I thought was way outta the loop.

Thx for the link to the LP Commercial Drifter...
Interesting that the shot of the brook and bridge is Bog River Falls at the head of Big Tupper Lake....one of my favorites.
