Vineyard.net, the only locally-owned Island Internet service provider, announced this week that it will continue to operate, despite struggles to stay afloat in the face of rising telecommunication costs and the introduction of broadband services to the Island. In what she said was a difficult decision, owner Kathy Retmier has decided to locate some of the services off-Island. The result will be increased quality of services for Island customers, while keeping the pricing the same as it has been for almost 14 years.
