Who have we partnered with in Elk Point to bring FREE Wi-Fi?
Pioneer Circle Elk Point Seniors Centre
For over half a century, the Pioneer Circle Elk Point has been the heart of community activity, offering social, recreational, cultural, and community programs for all ages. Operating for the last 33 years out of their current facility, they host everything from weekly card games, floor curling, and exercise classes to popular bingos drawing people from across the region. They also host music jamborees and provide a valuable rental space for social gatherings, business meetings, and community events. Now, thanks to the free internet, they’re enhancing their offerings even further.
Pioneer Circle shares with us, “MCSnet’s donation of internet services throughout our facility has truly enhanced our organization’s ability to serve our community and has created opportunities to broaden services to our many users. Everyone from business groups to memorial services can utilize internet access to enhance their programs. Many of our seniors are learning how the internet can open opportunities for their use. We are looking at education sessions to show how internet use through many devices can improve quality of life. In short, MCSnet has helped our organization create connections and opportunities for our community users.”
