As the vibrant foliage once again ushers in the splendid fall season in Vermont, I am delighted to extend a warm welcome to you all in our October eNewsletter. The crisp air, picturesque landscapes, and the promise of cozy evenings by the fireplace make this time of year truly magical. As we embrace the beauty of autumn, I am proud to share some exciting updates from Waitsfield and Champlain Valley Telecom.

One of our key commitments has always been to provide you with the best in telecommunications services, and I'm thrilled to announce that we continue to make remarkable progress on our fiber buildouts. Our dedicated team has been working diligently, continuing to expand our fiber network, ensuring that you have access to lightning-fast internet. This investment in our infrastructure is a testament to our unwavering commitment to serving you, our valued community members. Building fiber to everyone will take time and won’t happen overnight, but each and every day, we are making progress. Please know that every single dollar we invest in fiber is benefiting Vermont and the local communities we serve.

To stay up-to-date on fiber projects and availability please visit getfiber.wcvt.com and register your address. The "Fiber Build Areas" link has our build areas broken out by status, which may be helpful to you.

I'd also like to take a moment to express our gratitude to everyone who stopped by and visited us at the recent Bristol Harvest Festival. It was wonderful connecting with you and sharing our vision for a connected future. Thank you for choosing Waitsfield and Champlain Valley Telecom as your trusted telecom partner. We are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead and are committed to keeping you informed about our progress and innovations in the months to come. Wishing you a beautiful and cozy fall season in Vermont!

Warm regards,

Eric Haskin
President and CEO
Waitsfield and Champlain Valley Telecom

Bristol Harvest Festival

Thanks for Visiting Us at the Bristol Harvest Festival

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to visit our booth at the Bristol Harvest Festival. It was beautiful day and another great year with Kris staffing our booth.

Flagpole

Team WCVT Helps Out

WCVT employees, Chris and Caleb, usually found high above the ground repairing utility poles, traded in their tools for a paintbrush to help spruce up the flagpole at Waitsfield Elementary School. This act of volunteerism not only added a fresh coat of paint, but also symbolized unity and support for the local school and community. Great job, Chris and Caleb!
