☀The first day of summer seemed appropriate to thank our friends at SDN Communications for a great day of golf! Not only was it the chance to connect with colleagues and industry partners, they raised money for some great organizations.

Thanks Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC for asking us to be part of this week's Educator Experience! Jesse, Nathan, Sam, Aparna and Travis had a great time talking with area teachers about their personal career paths and skills that can help prepare students for a career in the broadband industry.

In June, 4 team members celebrated their #DCNworkiversary! 𝐀𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐚, info systems mgr, 11 yrs; 𝐄𝐫𝐢𝐤, transport engineer, 12; 𝐓𝐢𝐦, ethernet/IP engineer, 21; and 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐞, accounting tech, 1. Thanks for your hard work & dedication to DCN, our Owners & our customers!

Troy and Todd got to spend the day with our friends in government at the 2nd annual ND Digital Government Summit. These government employees are dedicated to serving all citizens to make this a better place and as a business partner we are proud to collaborate with them!

🎆Did you know the Mandan Independence Day Parade dates back to 1879 and is the one of the oldest continuous rodeos in the U.S.? Whether you're taking in parade, shooting off fireworks or just spending quiet time with family and friends, we hope you have a fun & safe 4th of July!

Have you ever wondered if tech people are good cooks? Well, ours are! From burgers to salads to rum cake (and everything in between), we had feasts in Bismarck and Fargo at our July potlucks! Spending time together and soaking up some vitamin D – that's what summers are for.

The 24th annual 𝐃𝐂𝐍 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐟 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐜 connected 113 customers, partners, board members & DCN teams. Thanks to our lunch sponsors Ciena & Nokia & snack bag sponsor INDATEL. Plus friends who brought door prizes to help make sure there were plenty to go around!

🏌🏼‍♀️Last week, was a marathon of golf for Account Executive Val! She went from the DCN Golf Classic in Bismarck to the FMWF Chamber Golf Outing to the @ValleySeniorLiving Classic in Grand Forks. Did we mention she doesn't even golf?! 😂

📣👀Have you heard? Our 𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐥 received a massive overhaul & it's live & ready to be put to work! It's all the functionality of the original but now you can also control account contacts, open trouble tickets, check service orders & enter lots of details.

This month we celebrate both ends of the workiversary spectrum. July marked 26 years that 𝐉𝐨𝐝𝐲, Ethernet/IP tech II, has been with DCN & one year for CFO 𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐦! We appreciate Jody & Adam & thank them for being reliable, responsive & building relationships on behalf of DCN.

📣Shoutout to INDATEL for an outstanding Business Symposium! It was filled with great speakers & networking w/ fellow INDATEL members. Our team came away with insight into the changing industry landscape & inspiration as we work together to connect rural & urban America.

📝And the survey says... we think our NOC does an amazing job serving our customers, and our customer survey confirmed that you do too! As a fun little way to thank the NOC team for their great work, we had #OlivesIceCreamTruck visit DCN.🙌

The Dakota Credit Union Association must have put in a request for perfect weather because it doesn't get any better than this. Mark and Troy had a great day of golf and connecting with new friends. Thanks, DakCU!

In honor of 𝓑𝓪𝓭 𝓟𝓸𝓮𝓽𝓻𝔂 𝓓𝓪𝔂, here's a little ditty to make you groan: Oh fiber, thin glass spaghetti of light, you carry my emails all day and all night. Copper’s so slow, it can’t keep the pace, but DCN’s fiber shines with dazzling grace.

📰Big news at DCN: our team has grown. We've hired a systems administrator and sales support representative, and our intern is now full-time! Please help congratulate Cole, Landyn and Eric! dakotacarrier.com/2025/08/dcn-te…
