Throughout this 14-month tour, the C-SPAN Bus will open its doors at each state capitol to welcome visitors and interview elected officials during C-SPAN’s signature morning call-in program, Washington Journal. C-SPAN Representatives will also gather video responses from visitors as part of its “Voices from the States” – an opportunity for visitors to share viewpoints on state issues and what they think Washington leaders should do to address local concerns.

Since 1993, a C-SPAN Bus has traveled across the nation in partnership with C-SPAN’s cable and satellite providers for local interactions through visits to schools and community events. Visitors to the Bus will engage with the C-SPAN Bus crew and the onboard interactive tools to learn about the unique public service television network, C-SPAN’s online presence and C-SPAN Classroom’s comprehensive educational resources. Bus visitors will learn about C-SPAN’s unique non-commercial, editorially-balanced, non-biased coverage of public affairs and political events and the cable industry’s commitment to funding its operations.

In Tecumseh and Shawnee, C-SPAN programming is provided by Vyve Broadband as a commercial-free public service and can be seen on channel 19; C-SPAN2 on channel 20; and CSPAN3 on channel 21 and on the web at C-SPAN.org.

Vyve Broadband Supports FCC Chairman Pai

Vyve Broadband affirms commitment to Net Neutrality as final FCC vote approaches

The Federal Communications Commission is set to vote on Net Neutrality this Thursday, December 12th and Vyve supports FCC Chairman Ajit Pai’s proposal to reverse the FCC’s 2015 ruling. Vyve is committed to Net Neutrality and has always delivered an open Internet experience to its customers.

The FCC’s 2015 ruling classified Internet Service Providers as common carriers subject to utility-style regulation under Title II of the Communications Act.

Vyve believes that Internet Service Providers should treat all data on the Internet the same regardless of the source. Vyve does not block or throttle any consumer access to lawful Internet content. Vyve also does not resell consumer data without consent or use it for marketing purposes.

Vyve is dedicated to delivering its goal to bring next-generation technology services to nonurban areas, and lighter regulations help make that possible, which is another reason why Vyve supports Chairman Pai’s proposal.

“We are proud to continue investing in our networks to give our customers the Internet speeds, capacity and services they want and need most” said Jeffrey DeMond, chief executive officer for Vyve Broadband. “A free and open Internet allows us to do so. We want to show our support and spread awareness about this very important topic in our industry.”

Eleven-Year Old’s Design Chosen As Official Vyve Christmas Card From Over 1,000 Entries

Vyve’s Annual Christmas Card Contest was a huge hit for the third year in a row. With over 1,000 entries from all eight Vyve services area states, this year’s contest entries surpassed all expectations.

After a long and throughout judging process, the Vyve team decided on a clear winner. Eleven-year old Dana Jordan from Broxton Mary Hayes Elementary School in Broxton, GA. Jordan’s drawing of a peacefully praying angel will be featured on Vyve’s Official Christmas Card and will be distributed to over 200,000 households throughout the country. Jordan will win an iPad mini for herself, $200 in art supplies for her school and a school-wide cookies and cocoa party.

The award winning community relations program has become much more than a brand initiative for the company. The program brings communities together and give kids the opportunity to share what Christmas Spirit means to them. The Vyve team looks forward to this contest all year.

“Certainly from an integrated branding perspective it has been hugely successful,” said Jeffrey DeMond, chief executive officer for Vyve Broadband. “But as the campaign has grown organically from company-to-community and back, it has shown how deeply we are engaged with our communities, and how much we care about our communities. At the end of the day, it makes everyone in our company and our communities feel good.”

Kid’s ages 3-12 year old who live in a Vyve market are eligible to enter to design a card that describes what Christmas Spirit means to them. The program is promoted throughout Vyve markets including schools, libraries, churches, social media and chambers of commerce.

Jordan’s winning design was sent to Hallmark Business Connections who will produce Vyve’s official 2017 Christmas Card.

Local businesses will also experience a significant boost in their Internet capabilities, with the addition of a blazing fast 250 Mbps Internet service. By offering the fastest internet speed in the area, Vyve serves as a partner to businesses advancing the Ottawa economy.

“We are excited to add Ottawa to our growing list of 200 Mbps markets,” said Jeffrey DeMond, chief executive officer for Vyve Broadband. “‘Vyve 200’ will be a key product for certain residential customers who have unique needs, such as people who work from home or those using graphics-heavy gaming and visual design software. Now they will have the bandwidth they need to be connected.”

“It’s clear that the online technology, information and entertainment landscape is evolving on an almost daily basis. What’s incredibly fast today will be the norm tomorrow,” DeMond says. “Vyve is building the network now that our customers will want and demand in the future. We’re committed to long-term relationships with our customers, and part of that commitment is looking not only at their current needs, but what their needs will be several years down the road.”

This upgraded service represents another milestone in the ongoing drive by Vyve to provide cutting-edge broadband speeds in rural markets that have traditionally lagged behind in technology offerings. Vyve investments since the company launched in late 2013 have more than doubled the average speed for existing customers. Vyve is already offering ‘Vyve Gig’ (1,000 Megabits) in select markets and is currently testing in many more.
