SCHOHARIE – Schoharie County officials, in partnership with the New York State ConnectALL Office and project partners, will host a groundbreaking ceremony on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, to celebrate the start of construction for a transformative broadband expansion project that will bring high-speed internet access to hundreds of unserved and underserved homes and businesses across the county.
The event will take place at Schoharie Valley Farms, 5605 NY-30, Schoharie, NY 12157 at 11:00 a.m., and will feature remarks from representatives of ConnectALL, and Schoharie County leadership, highlighting the collaborative effort to strengthen rural internet connectivity and expand economic opportunity in the region.
“This project represents a major investment in Schoharie County’s future,” said John Crescimanno, Economic Development Coordinator, Schoharie County. “Reliable, high-speed internet is essential for our schools, farms, small businesses, and families—and today marks the beginning of a more connected and prosperous future.”
This deployment of internet service is supported by a $30 million grant awarded to Schoharie County by New York State through the ConnectALL program. The project will deploy new broadband infrastructure throughout rural communities, closing long-standing digital gaps and improving access to education, healthcare, and commerce.
The groundbreaking ceremony will be open to the public. Media are encouraged to attend.
