Tune In To Lafayette's OneWebDay Celebration Tonight!
For everyone who's ever admired Lafayette from afar and who cares about the future of the Internet, or anyone who just enjoys watching a good time being had, I encourage you to tune in to Lafayette, LA's OneWebDay celebration tonight from 6-7pm Central at www.aocinc.org. (The video will be live later today.)
For starters, OneWebDay is an international celebration of the Internet and how it brings us together as one people. There are events happening all over the world. Go check out their site to see if there's one near you.
But if there isn't or if you'd rather stay at home, then I strongly encourage you to check out what's going on down in Lafayette tonight.
There's a bang-up list of speakers scheduled, including Mayor Joey Durel, LUS Director Terry Huval (they're the ones building the fiber), University of Louisiana-Lafayette President Dr. Savoie, and a whole lot more, all talking about what they're doing with broadband and what they're excited about for the future. It's a celebration of their community, culture, and commitment to pursuing their innovative spirit.
Plus there's going to be a live Cajun band playing throughout!
What better way to spend an early Tuesday evening then tuning in to see what's happening in one of the most wired and inspired communities in the country.
And if you happen to live in or near Lafayette, then get to the LITE Center on Cajundome Blvd by 5:30 for a reception with free beer and win. Then enjoy the show live and be able to cheer on your fellow citizens.
Don't miss out on the opportunity to join in on the fun!
