- The AVL Lake Association has been working hard to bring high speed broadband to this area. By now most of you have received a letter of intent from Runestone Telecom. You can view the letter here. As the letter states, it is up to the State of Minnesota to award the grant money to whom they see as residents/business areas in need. Kent Hedstrom, General manager/CEO of Runestone telecom asks for area residents to write a letter of support for the project. It is the unanimous consensus of the AVL board to support this effort, and we ask our AVL residents to please take the time to drop a note or letter to Kent about the importance of Fiber Optic broadband for you, your business, your family. It is our goal to arm Kent with resident support letters so as to gain the grant dollars needed. All broadband support letters must be received by Kent Hedstrom no later then September 18th. To date, Kent has told us he has received about 50 letters. There are other areas of the state bidding for grant money as well, so let's flood Kent with broadband support letters to assure we are picked. For more information about the project you may call Kent at 320-986-2013.
Your letters can be mailed to : *Or if preferred, an e-mail will work as well. Kent’s e-mail address is: kent@runestone.net- Kent Hedstrom
