WCTA Pays Out $2 Million in Dividends

Winnebago Cooperative Telecom Association (WCTA) will disburse nearly 8,000 dividend checks totaling $2 million in late June. The payments represent the remaining deferred dividends for members who had service with WCTA in 2005. In addition, WCTA will pay out patronage dividends for part of the year of 2000.

WCTA CEO, Mark Thoma stated that this is a practice long held by the company.

Thoma explained that WCTA is proud of our success and growth over the years. 

The WCTA Board of Directors voted earlier this year to approve the payment distribution. Board members include Larry Foley, Curt Helland, Mark R. Johnson, Dale Meinders, Shanan Redinger, Mike Stensrud, and Steve Thorland.

Thoma sees an opportunity for tremendous growth in the future.
