REMC connects 3,000th fiber customer

LaGrange County REMC celebrates the installation of its 3,000th fiber connection, Ehren and Wendy Misner, residents of Wolcottville.

For the Misner family, internet connectivity is more than just an amenity; it's a vital lifeline that supports both work and leisure activities. Wendy, who works for Westview School Corporation, relies on a stable internet connection to fulfill her professional duties. Ehren, a general manager at Riverside RV in LaGrange said, “We’re so grateful REMC is doing broadband. It allows us to live a rural life without sacrificing big city conveniences.”

Beyond work, the Misners also utilize the internet for entertainment and educational purposes. With two of their four sons still at home, the family enjoys streaming movies, gaming, and accessing educational resources online. “And when the older two come over, or their girlfriends are here, things get a little bogged down,” Misner noted. “Now we’ve got a Gig!”

The significance of LaGrange County REMC's 3,000th internet connection extends far beyond the Misner household. It symbolizes the cooperative's unwavering commitment to serving its members and empowering our rural communities with the tools they need to thrive in the digital age.

As LaGrange County REMC continues its mission to connect more households and businesses to high-speed internet, the cooperative remains dedicated to ensuring that rural communities can also enjoy those big city conveniences.
