We would love to see y'all at the Annual Meeting on October 17th!

Y'all be sure to stop by our internet table and tell us hi! We can't wait to see everyone! 🛜

As our lives get busier and more connected through screens and technology, it’s more important than ever to make time for one another—to gather, connect face-to-face, and be part of the community we share.

At the heart of everything we do are the people we serve. We’re connected by more than power lines—we’re neighbors, friends, and members of the same community. And there’s something special about stepping away from our busy lives to come together in person.

We look forward to seeing you, catching up, and connecting with you at our annual meeting each year.

Mark your calendars! We’d love to see you at our 2026 Annual Membership Meeting on October 17, 2026, at the Bay City Civic Center.

We hope you’ll join us!

If we offered you a FREE squishy (NET doh)… would you switch your internet provider to us? 👀😂

We may not be able to promise that your new squishy will solve all your problems… but we can promise:

➡️Affordable monthly fees
➡️Friendly customer support!
➡️Reliable internet so you can stream, scroll, work, game, and do all the things!

Would a squishy seal the deal? 🤷‍♀️

Dove Season Is Here! Please Shoot Responsibly

As dove season gets underway here in Texas, we want to remind everyone of something extremely important: shooting toward power lines, utility poles, or other utility infrastructure is illegal, dangerous, and can cause serious damage to the services our communities rely on. Unfortunately, this isn’t just a safety reminder for us, we are currently dealing with the consequences.

📸 The photos below show recent damage to our fiber line around the Edna area. Sh***un pellets can damage fragile fiber-optic cables, and that damage can result in outages and service issues for customers. We are working to address the damage, and we are in contact with the local game warden regarding these incidents, which will be investigated. Incidents like this can affect internet service for more than just the person who was out hunting.

⚠️ Why shooting near utility infrastructure is so dangerous ⚠️

🔥 Fire Risk: A stray shot can damage electrical equipment or create an electrical arc, potentially igniting dry grass and causing a wildfire.

⚡ Electrocution Risk: Damaging power lines or utility equipment can create extremely dangerous conditions and can result in serious injury or death.

🌐 Internet Outages: Sh***un pellets can damage fiber-optic cables and other communications infrastructure, disrupting internet service for homes and businesses.

💰 Expensive Damage: Repairs to utility and communications infrastructure can cost thousands of dollars, and those responsible may be held financially liable.

🚔 Legal Consequences: Shooting at or damaging utility infrastructure can result in criminal charges, fines, and other legal consequences.

Please help us prevent another incident!

Never use utility poles or power lines as a backdrop when shooting. Do not shoot at birds sitting on power lines, and never place deer stands, cameras, decoys, or other equipment on or around utility infrastructure. What may seem like an easy shot can have serious consequences for you, your neighbors, and the entire community.

Please enjoy dove season safely and responsibly. Look beyond your target and know what is behind it. We appreciate everyone's help in protecting our infrastructure and keeping our communities safe!
