GBT's March Employee Spotlight: Bryan

This is a special month as we celebrate Bryan's 25th anniversary here at GBT!

For 25 years, Bryan has been an essential part of the GBT team, helping build GBT to where it is today.

"Our cooperative values and principles are to excel in service through providing state-of-the-art technology by people who care. Bryan has played an important role in helping deliver on those values and principles throughout Ness County over the last 25 years, as well as being very active in his community. GBT’s success is a direct result of individual efforts and dedication from committed employees like Bryan. Thank you for all you have done for GBT during your 25 years of service and for your ongoing commitment to our success." Beau Rebel, GBT General Manager

Bryan, we all look up to you for your dedication, accountability, and especially the way you care for your customers. Congrats on 25 years.

Join us in wishing a Happy Birthday to retired GBT Board Member, Ben Brenner, who is celebrating his 99th birthday today! 🎈🎂

Ben represented the Beeler and Ness City exchanges from 1976 – 2006. When asked to comment, he laughed and said, “I was only on the Board for 30 years”, Celebrating Former GBT Board Member Ben Brenner’s 99th Birthday, and “things were always changing.” A little insight— when Ben first joined the GBT Board, aerial lines were most common (buried cable was just starting), most people were on “party” lines (sharing a phone line with up to 8 other customers), cellular phones didn’t exist, and Internet was just an idea. Ben has certainly seen a lot of changes through GBT’s history, and we thank him for his leadership and dedication which made GBT what it is today.

Happy 99th Birthday, Ben. ... See more

GBT is excited to announce the winner of the 2020 Foundation for Rural Service Community Grant Award: The Hays Area Children’s Center, serving the Youth of Rush County!

They were one of 12 recipients of this national grant designed to support local efforts to build and sustain a high quality of life in rural America. GBT sponsors applicants from our service area for the annual competition, and this year’s recipient marks our 5th national winner since the program began in 2015!

The grant provided funding to purchase a tympanometer, a tool used in early childhood screening to perform tympanograms and test hearing of Rush County youth from Birth to Age 5. Early detection of issues can help prevent developmental delays, and according to Jennifer Oborny, grant submitter, the 24-year-old hearing equipment desperately needed updating.
