Spring 2018 Newsletter

Cornerstone Group © 2018 Simplify Your Life With Managed Wi-Fi You love having a Wi-Fi network, but not the hassles of equipment upgrades and troubleshooting. That’s why SKT offers Managed Wi-Fi for just $9.99 per month. Our team handles it all for you, so you can simply enjoy strong signals and fast Internet with any device throughout your home or business. It’s imperative that your wireless router is new enough to support the latest Internet speeds, including fiber plans. A good analogy is trying to force a fire-hose stream of water through a drinking straw. That’s what can happen to a strong Wi-Fi signal with an old router. SKT’s Managed Wi-Fi will provide a new router to give you a strong signal. If you need to extend your Wi-Fi coverage to eliminate dead spots, ask about SKT’s Wi-Fi Mesh. For just $4 per month, you can lease a “satellite” that will communicate with your router to provide a strong signal everywhere – whether your basement, your garage, or even your backyard. Call us at 888.758.8976 for the details on SKT’s Managed Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Mesh network solutions. Also check with us to see if your current Internet plan has sufficient speed to handle all your devices and online activities including video streaming. Troy Bullard Wins Directory Cover Photo Contest Third Place: Gregory Hennes, Balloon over the Sunflowers First Place: Troy Bullard, Ceremonial Dance Second Place: Jay Stockhaus, Milky Way SKT is pleased to announce that Troy Bullard is the winner of the Clearwater/Viola 2018 Directory Cover Photo Contest. Troy, along with his wife Wendy and their three children, are the proprietors and stewards of Chick-a-Woof Ranch located in rural Clearwater. Troy says: It's been seven years since our family moved to Clearwater. We found the perfect country house for our family in the fall of 2010. Right after we found our house, Clearwater was hosting their annual fall festival. This was our first look at the community. We found that Clearwater offered a little bit of everything we needed, making it easier to choose country life. This year’s festival was very special—commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Chisholm Trail. Living country life out on the prairie, we've often looked out our window expecting to see tee-pees or Indians riding over the ridge. So, getting to watch the descendants of those Native Americans re-enact their ceremonial dances was very special. I wish you could hear the drum beats and chants with the photo. If you got to see them this last year, you'll know what I mean. Troy took the winning photo on Saturday, September 16, 2017, at Clearwater’s Fall Festival. His colorful photo features the Native American Pathfinders. Jay Stockhaus of Clearwater took second place with his photo of the Milky Way captured from southwest of Clearwater. Greg Hennes received third place with his entry entitled, “Balloon over the Sunflowers.” He is from the Viola area. Troy, Jay, and Greg received $100, $50, and $25, respectively, from SKT. Troy’s photo will be seen on the cover of the new directories, which will be available later this spring. There were 21 entries in this year’s contest.
