<BODY>Alpine is pleased to announce the recipients of the 2009 Alpine 
Communications Scholarship. A total of $2,000.00 was awarded to four graduating 
seniors who reside in an Alpine Communications telephone exchange and attend 
Central, MFL MarMac, Valley, or Clayton Ridge High School. 

<p>The students were asked to write a paragraph on how telecommunications technology has or will benefit them in the future. Consideration was given
to students seeking higher education in the fields of
telecommunications technology, communications, or computer science.

<p>Alpine extends a special thank you to the local Dollars 
for Scholars program and each school district's high school guidance counselor 
for assisting in the selection and administration of our scholarship.
<P>A $500 scholarship was awarded to each of the following students:&nbsp;
<UL>
  <LI>Central High School - Jake McGreal </LI>
  <LI>Valley High School - Naomi Hanson </LI>
  <LI>MFL MarMac High School - Allison Ries </LI>

		<p class="profile-textblock">Alpine Communications has been providing telephone, Internet, and security services to six rural exchanges in northeast Iowa since 1997.   Alpine also offers cable TV service to seven nearby communities.  A new retail center, Web hosting/design, computer security, and business phone system sales and service are Alpine's other areas of specialization.  A fiber-to-the-home project was recently completed in Elkader and Guttenberg.
