High-speed, free public Wi-Fi is now available at Pendery Park, AJ Jolly Park and AJ Jolly Golf Course in Campbell County.
Visitors can now access the high-speed Wi-Fi network in the park’s golf course clubhouse, designated areas in the parks/equestrian facilities and camping areas.
“Campbell County continues to lead the way in elevating experiences for our residents and visitors to our parks,” Judge/Executive Steve Pendery said in a press release. “Visitors will now have access to their favorite online music, videos, e-books and social media as part of their park experience.”
Altafiber will oversee management of the Wi-Fi networks at the parks and golf course. John Putnam, Sales Director for altafiber, said the partnership reflects altafiber’s commitment to helping its partners leverage technology.
“Altafiber’s Wi-Fi network will offer thousands of AJ Jolly Park and Pendery Park visitors connectivity every day, but that’s just part of the benefit,” Putnam said in a press release. “By logging into the Wi-Fi network and agreeing to receive messages, visitors will be notified via e-mail of park amenities, specials and upcoming events, further enhancing the visitor experience.”
John B. Scola, director of altafiber’s Mobility Program, said that the infrastructure will allow Campbell County to eventually add a full range of connectivity options including sensors in the parks to monitor water levels and quality, air quality and various equipment functionality.
The Campbell County Fiscal Court utilized the American Rescue Plan Act funds for this project. The county did not use any general funds for this project.
