2 JUNE 2025 connections BUSINESS PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER Do some of your business meetings take place on a golf course? If so, you’re no doubt thrilled that summer is here. I can appreciate the appeal of building stronger business relationships while enjoying friendly competition and amazing Vermont landscapes. I have golf courses on my mind due to this issue’s Business Spotlight on West Bolton Golf Club in Jericho. Like Waitsfield and Champlain Valley (WCVT), West Bolton Golf Club is a family business that prides itself on excellent customer service. Check out pages 4 and 5 to learn what makes West Bolton Golf Club unique as well as its experience as a long-time WCVT customer. This June ‘25 issue of Business Connections also includes The Future Is Calling With Hosted IP Phone Service on page 3. This service is popular with many of our business customers, and you’ll learn why after reading the article. Don’t miss Tech Talk With Richard Pitonyak on page 6, which shares best practices for preventing cyberattacks. As in every issue, page 7 features WCVT in the Community. This time it includes the description of a recent award given to WCVT from the Lake Champlain Chamber, as well as the community activities we’re looking forward to this summer. Enjoy the coming months, and let us know if you’d like to meet with a member of our Business Sales Team to discuss your communications needs—at your place of business, on the golf course, or wherever.
