Adams Fiber named NTCA Smart Rural Community Showcase award winner
GOLDEN, Ill. — Rural broadband association chief executive officer Shirley Bloomfield recently announced the winners of the 2024 Smart Rural Community Showcase Awards, presented annually to rural broadband providers who not only provide high-quality, reliable connectivity, but who also have led the way on collaborative and innovative projects that advance the communities they serve.
Adams Fiber of Golden was recognized for the installation of fiber networks at the Adams and Hancock County fairgrounds so local law enforcement and emergency responders have the connectivity needed to keep people safe during events.
The Smart Rural Community program is a network of more than 280 communities supported by National Telephone Cooperative Association (NTCA) member providers who are committed to driving growth through robust broadband service.
The Showcase Awards are presented to providers in recognition of their achievements in promoting rural broadband networks and innovative applications that create opportunities for educators, health care providers, farmers, small business owners, public safety professionals and others who help their communities thrive.
