VILLA PARK

A resident who produces infomercials has been selected to serve on the board for the local cable television channel. Packy MacFarland last week joined the Villa Park Community Access Television Corp., which produces public affairs programs for Channel 3. MacFarland owns Real to Reel Production, which he runs out of his Villa Park home. For the last two decades, MacFarland has produced many infomercials, including one called “Body by Jake.” He was the only applicant considered. The other applicant was not a Villa Park resident and therefore didn’t qualify.
