XLCR32 is a video newscast service. Valleys are asked to take photos & even video clips of their events and celebrations and email us at xlcr32@gmail.com for instructions on how to send those files to us. Once we have the files along with information about the event, we will compile them into a short video and post it on our Vimeo page (https://vimeo.com/channels/xlcr32).
