Lumbee River EMC (LREMC)

John Lowery, Lumbee Tribal Chairman, attended the "Strike at the Wind" production at the cultural center and mentioned to Tara Locklear, Member Services Representative, that he'd like a RIVR Tech shirt. Tara made it happen! We're proud of our strong partnership and look forward to continuing our work together for the community.

🏀✨ We are proud to support the future stars of our community! Lumbee River EMC had the privilege of sending two talented students to prestigious basketball camps this summer. Kyran Oxendine from West Hoke Middle School attended the UNC Basketball Camp, and Cierra Faircloth from John Griffin Middle school attended the Wolfpack Women’s Basketball Camp at NC State. We can't wait to see all the amazing things they will accomplish on and off the court! Join us in congratulating Kyran and Cierra on this fantastic opportunity. 🏀✨

David Spencer, MA, MS, LREMC Director of Marketing and Communication, connected with Billy Oxendine, a cast member in the "Strike at the Wind" theater production, to learn more about how we partner to impact our community. Enjoy free WiFi from RIVR Tech as you watch the show!

Meet Candace, the owner of Five Points Pet Resort in Raeford, NC. She recently switched to RIVR Tech for her internet needs and has been experiencing remarkable results. Here’s what she has to say about our service: "For anyone in Hoke and Robeson counties who have tried to start, grow, and run a business over the last 20 years, they know that finding reliable internet that meets their operational needs has always been a challenge. For businesses in the more rural areas of these counties, it is especially daunting. Thankfully, RIVR TECH has arrived! In the few weeks we have had fiber internet through RIVR TECH, we have been thrilled with the consistency of service and the power to run our software, phone lines, credit card processing equipment, and the 25 security cameras. We now receive fewer complaints from clients losing webcam viewing access to their pets thanks to RIVR TECH's reliable internet. Their customer service is local, quick, and personable—not like these big companies with call centers far away.” #RIVRTech #Internet #Business

This summer, we are conducting an online survey to gather input directly from our local membership.

Your answers will help ensure that we serve our community effectively, plan to meet local needs, and are responsive to opportunities to improve how we serve you. More Details: https://lnkd.in/ejWQ4KvA
