Cantaloupe Festival Sponsor Shoutout – CC Communications

Cantaloupe Festival Sponsor Shoutout – CC Communications

This week’s Cantaloupe Festival and Country Fair sponsor shoutout goes to CC Communications. Festival officials would like to publicly thank CC Communications for being a Presenting Sponsor and express their appreciation for the continued annual support.

In 1889, the Churchill County Commissioners directed the Treasurer to write a check for $975.00 to Western Union Telegraph to acquire wire plans extending from Virginia City to a location 25 miles east of Stillwater. With this purchase, Churchill County entered the communications business and is now the only county-owned telephone company in the country.

According to Cantaloupe Festival Executive Director Adrianne Snow, CC Comm is another sponsor they can’t do without. Providing internet service throughout the Churchill County Fairgrounds throughout the festival is no small feat. With nearly every vendor needing to access the internet to complete point-of-sale credit card transactions, a fast and dependable internet is paramount. CC Comm works hard every year to ensure that performers, exhibitors, vendors, festival officials, and county staff have a reliable connection to ensure the event goes off without a hitch.

CC Comm has long been a premier sponsor and an integral part of a successful festival. “We appreciate all that you do for this event and for this community!” said festival organizers.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
