Building… Continue reading.
On Nov. 1, we reached our 2,000th broadband connection. Just a couple of months after securing our 1,000th connection, twice that amount are now able to access high-speed internet in their homes and businesses via their LaGrange County REMC Broadband service. And with the benefits these connections bring, that number will continue to rise. Chad… Continue reading.
