Kyle Sweat, Mayor of McCaskill, AR shares about their success story and partnership with Southwest Arkansas Telephone Coop.
We are so thankful to have had SWAT bring fiber internet to our rural community. Before SWAT, there were no reliable high speed internet options in McCaskill. In today's world, high speed internet is of utmost importance. I know that school children in our community have benefited greatly from having reliable, fast internet for completing school assignments and for completing assigned work on days that school is canceled due to inclement weather. In the past, we had students in our area who have had to drive to town to use Wi-Fi in order to complete schoolwork, so having SWAT high speed internet has been such a blessing.
Thank you to Southwest Arkansas Telephone Co-op for what you've done for rural communities like McCaskill! High speed internet is a vital service to have, and the town of McCaskill is grateful.
Kyle Sweat
Mayor of McCaskill
