EDINBURG, Va., May 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shenandoah Telecommunications Company (Shentel) (Nasdaq: SHEN), a leading broadband service provider, is pleased to announce the completion of its Virginia Telecommunications Initiative (VATI) project to expand gigabit broadband internet service to more than 4,100 previously unserved homes in Campbell County, Virginia. The $20 million construction project was partly funded by the nationally recognized VATI program, administered by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development. Additional funding was provided through Shentel’s own capital investment and a contribution from Campbell County.

“The Campbell County Board of Supervisors has been working for years to implement countywide broadband access,” said Frank Rogers, County Administrator of Campbell County. “Our recent partnership with Shentel has been an outstanding example of a public-private partnership that effectively expands this critical service in Campbell. We are very grateful to the Shentel team for their willingness to work with us on this important endeavor and for their efforts to bring the project in on schedule and within budget.”

As a leading broadband internet provider serving smaller markets and rural communities, Shentel takes great pride in several key differentiators:

Fast internet with exceptional reliability
Prompt and friendly local customer service
A full range of video and voice service options

“Bringing this project to completion in Campbell County reflects the careful planning and sustained coordination required to expand broadband in rural areas,” said Chris Kyle, VP of Regulatory & Industry Affairs at Shentel. “By working closely with state and county partners, Shentel was able to extend a high‑quality network to thousands of locations that were previously unserved, creating expanded connectivity for residents and the community.”
