It’s Great To Live Here
Polar Communications is a local telecommunications cooperative serving the Red River Valley and surrounding areas. We are proud of our rural roots, which stretch back to 1952, when a group of residents teamed up to bring telephone service to their neighbors. The care for our community has persisted through the decades, and we express it in ways that go beyond the literal phone, internet, security, and IT services we provide.
We invest in new technologies and create new products that address today’s challenges. More importantly, we donate to good causes, fund scholarships, and take actions that make life easier for our members and non-members alike. We support the towns we serve and make them more attractive places to live and work. When our small towns thrive, so do the people in them.
Polar empowers communities through advanced technology, customer experience, and initiatives that foster growth and development.
