Community members can now take advantage of the high-speed internet service that was recently installed at the learning center. UMLC and Foothills Connect spent weeks planning and conducting site evaluations to determine the best options for Internet installation. The connection is a line-of-site, point-to-multiple-point wireless service which provides the center with a speed of 6 megbits per second download and 2 megabits per second upload. Wireless access is available anywhere on the UMLC campus for members who want to connect with their own laptop or wireless device. The center also received a donation of 15 laptops to be used in the computer lab. Plans are underway to offer computer courses to the public in the near future. Currently, the lab is open to the public on Wednesday and Friday afternoons.
The Union Mills Learning Center is currently leasing out space to individuals or businesses. Rooms come in several sizes and the lease payment includes all utilities. For more information, contact (828)447-9601.
