ADTRAN would like to congratulate Valparaiso, Indiana for being chosen as a semifinalist in the $10 million America’s Best Communities competition, sponsored by Frontier Communications, DISH Network, The Weather Channel and CoBank. The competition is designed to recognize and reward communities that demonstrate vision and entrepreneurial spirit, as well as a commitment to improve lives and stimulate their local economy. We’ve supported and counseled the city in the development of its Community Revitalization Plan and we’re very excited they had been chosen as one of the 15 semifinalists in the competition.
