Cellular Coverage Reaches Rural Louisiana

Centennial Communications has launched wireless telephone service in Shaw, Louisiana, a community of approximately 100 residents that has never had telephone service of any kind.

"With the leadership of Louisiana Public Service Commissioner Foster Campbell and support from the Universal Service Fund, the residents of Shaw, Louisiana will now have access to modern and reliable telecommunications services for the first time," said John R. LeBoeuf, Jr., Centennial's Regional Vice President for the Southeast. "As a company that understands local market needs, it feels great to be able to offer this vital service to the residents of Shaw, Louisiana."
