Mid-Rivers Communications is pleased to announce the award of 76 scholarships to students from the Cooperative’s service area, an increase of 40 scholarships over the original 36 planned. Last fall, the Cooperative announced the availability of 30 Higher Education Scholarships of $2,000 each, and 6 Dawson Community College/Miles Community College Scholarships of $2,500 each. However, following a review of the applicants and funds available for scholarships, the Mid-Rivers Board of Trustees voted to expand the awards to include scholarships for every eligible applicant, and to increase the award amounts to the top applicants in each category.

Most of us who still have landline phone service are probably using that service on a cordless phone. Cordless phones rely on a base station that is connected to the electrical power supply in your home. When there is a power outage, the base station loses power, and as a result, the cordless phones won’t function.
