Meet Vicki Winton, Business Account Coordinator!

Congratulations Vicki Winton, Socket's You-Make-the-Difference award winner for November!

This month's You-Make-The-Difference Award winner, Vicki Winton, is officially described as a business account coordinator, but that hardly does justice to the multitude of jobs she gets done.

Vibratory plow increases flexibility (and decreases the mess in your yard)

It may not look like much. Just a used maxi sneaker made by Case or Astec, depending on who you ask, dragged to Missouri from Minnesota.

But our new vibratory plow is a huge next step for Socket and our Rural Fiber Project.

Why? It allows us to do our own drops, which connect homes and businesses to our existing fiber route.

It's Fan Friday!

There’s a lot of spirit-wear in the office today… and more than a few inflamed rivalries. But the important thing is that it’s for a good cause.

We asked employees to donate to the Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri, in exchange for wearing whatever fan gear they’d like to the office. Our goal for the month of December is to provide at least 12,000 meals for local Missouri residents, and the donations we collected today have brought us a lot closer to that mark.
