VYVE BROADBAND TEACHER OF THE MONTH PROGRAM RECOGNIZES TEACHERS WHO ARE GETTING IT RIGHT

36 Public School Teachers from Oklahoma, Texas and Arkansas Recognized for their Outstanding Contributions

Vyve Broadband is obsessed with great teaching. That’s why they founded the Vyve Teacher of the Month program, to show teachers how special they really are.

Through the first-ever Vyve Teacher of the Month program, residents across 12 markets in three states took to social media and the Vyve website to nominate and recognize local school teachers for their extraordinary commitment to students both inside and outside of the classroom.

“We believe it is essential to recognize the work of outstanding teachers in every community we operate, to share their experiences, and to support them in their growth,” says Diane Quennoz, Vyve SVP, Marketing and Customer Experience. “Many of them are unsung heroes that go unnoticed. Maybe they helped a student earn a better grade, maybe they gave a student encouragement to do better, or maybe they were just there when a student needed to talk. Whatever the reason, we appreciate what they do for our students.”

For this initial three month campaign, winners were named each month from March to May in the following Vyve markets: Dumas, Ark., McGehee, Ark., Durant, Okla., Guymon, Okla., McAlester, Okla., Hooks, TX, Shawnee, Okla., New Boston, TX, Maud, TX, De Kalb, TX, Perryton, TX, and Dalhart, TX.

More than 500 school teachers were nominated through this first-ever program, garnering hundreds of votes and social engagements, plus media mentions.

“We are thrilled with the overwhelming participation, through both voting and social interaction for the launch of the Vyve Teacher of the Month program,” said Quennoz. “Our goal is to recognize outstanding teachers in our rural markets, and we have engaged entire communities in doing that through this program. We are looking forward to the 2017 – 2018 school year and honoring even more deserving teachers.” The Vyve Teacher of the Month award is presented to teachers who have proven to be champions of the classroom and stewards of their community through their teaching, mentoring and leadership. Nominations and voting for Vyve Teacher of the Month was open to anyone in the community via Facebook and the Vyve website. Vyve Teacher of the Month will return this fall at www.vyvebroadband.com/teacher or www.facebook.com/vyvebroadband.

Vyve Loves Shawnee and is throwing a cool Summer party to show it.

“Random Acts of Vyveness” Start this Saturday at Shawnee Splash

Vyve Broadband is set to show Shawnee some major love this Saturday, July 15th at Shawnee Splash as they kick-off a new initiative, aptly titled “Random Acts of Vyveness.”

This first “act” welcomes the entire community to meet Vyve outside of the Shawnee Splash Waterpark for FREE snow cones, prizes, surprises, and fun for the entire family, beginning at 1PM this Saturday, July 15th.

“The only thing better on a hot summer day than an ice cold snow cone, is a free ice cold snow cone,” said Diane Quennoz, SVP of Marketing and Customer Experience. “We love Shawnee and couldn’t be more excited to launch our ‘Random Acts of Vyveness’ in our hometown,” added Quennoz.

Vyve has proven its dedication to rural communities since its inception in 2013, whether that means launching Gigabit Internet speeds or partnering with local schools for their Christmas Card Art Contest and Teacher of the Month program. “One of our core values is to engrain ourselves in the communities where we live and work, to be more than just a service provider,” said Quennoz. “We love living and working in Shawnee and our Random Acts of Vyveness are just another way we plan to give back and say ‘thanks’ to Shawnee.”

Snow S’more Food Truck will be serving up free snow cones from 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm outside Shawnee Splash Waterpark, 101 E. Highland Street. KBRU-FM will join the party with a live remote broadcast and Vyve will be on hand with prizes, surprises and fun throughout the afternoon. See you there, Shawnee!

‘Vyve 200’ Affirms Company’s Commitment to Broadband Adoption in Rural Markets

Vyve Broadband’s mission is to provide rural communities with world-class broadband Internet service that levels the playing field. Today, Vyve has taken the next step in that mission with the launch of 200 Megabit-per-second Internet service to customers in the Ft. Riley, Kansas market.

The local Vyve team recently completed successful testing of 200 Meg service, and it is now available to local residents and businesses in Ft. Riley. The boost to 200 Meg service increases our fastest Internet speeds nearly two times. Residents with multiple connected devices such as smartphones, tablets, computers, TVs and gaming systems will be able to run their devices concurrently without interruption.

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

“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 in Kansas 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.

Customers who are interested in ‘Vyve 200’ service can call 1-855-FOR-VYVE.
