🐾 Celebrating Women-Owned Businesses in Sherwood!
In honor of American Business Women’s Day, we’re proud to spotlight The Dog Stop, a local, woman-owned business and Sherwood Broadband customer!
Located near Langer’s Entertainment Center, The Dog Stop, owned by Cindy Smith, offers boarding, daycare, grooming and training for your four-legged family members. 🐶
Cindy’s inspiration for starting The Dog Stop came directly from being a dog mom for 40 years. She wanted to create a place where dogs could receive the love, attention and care they deserve.
Her advice to women considering starting their own business?
“Take the chance in yourself and always offer the best to your customers.”
Cindy also wants Sherwood families to know that The Dog Stop is committed to transparency and exceptional care. Their open-door policy allows clients to tour the facility, including the play yards, kennel suites and grooming salons.
We’re proud to support local businesses like The Dog Stop and the women who make our community stronger! 💖
📍 Stop by The Dog Stop and give Cindy and her team a chance to show you how they care for your pups!

September is National Preparedness Month.
Emergencies can happen anytime, anywhere - including when you're on the road. A simple way to be better prepared is to keep an emergency kit in your vehicle.
🚘 Not sure where to start? Here are a few basics you'll be happy to have if you get stuck on the road:
▪️Water
▪️Shelf-stable snacks
▪️First-aid kit
▪️Phone charger
▪️Portable power bank
▪️Flashlight
▪️Blankets
▪️Extra clothes
You don't need to buy an expensive pre-made kit. Start with things you already have at home and add a few items over time.

Celebrating Local Women in Business!
Today is American Business Women’s Day, and we’re celebrating by spotlighting some the incredible women-owned businesses in our Sherwood community - including Little Wishes Children’s Boutique, a proud Sherwood Broadband customer!
Located in the Sherwood Marketplace, Little Wishes offers clothing, shoes and gifts for the little ones in your life.
Owner Rebecca Flatwood was inspired by her own experience as a busy mom. After finding herself driving all over the area to shop for her children, she thought, “I wish I could just find what I needed in Sherwood!” That idea became Little Wishes.
We asked Rebecca what she wishes people knew about her business. Her answer?
“Boutique doesn't mean expensive.”
She also shared some great advice for women thinking about starting their own business:
✨ Find your cheerleaders.
✨ Find networking groups and ask questions.
✨ Surround yourself with people who will lift you up.
We’re proud to support local businesses like Little Wishes Children’s Boutique and are grateful to have them as part of the Sherwood Broadband community.

🔌📶 September is National Preparedness Month!
Power outages can happen when we least expect them. A little preparation can help you stay connected when the lights go out.
Here are a few simple ways to keep your internet up and running during an outage:
🔋 Keep your equipment powered. Connect your modem/router to a battery backup (UPS) so your equipment can continue running if the power goes out.
🔌 Charge up ahead of time. Keep phones, laptops and portable battery packs charged so you have a way to stay connected.
📱 Have a backup plan. Know where you can access important information or emergency updates if your home internet isn’t available.
💡 Know what to expect. Even with a backup battery, internet service may be affected if the outage impacts other network equipment or infrastructure.
Stay prepared. Stay connected.
