AT&T BRINGS A COW TO GIRLS SCOUTS CAMPOREE

Cell On Wheels Enhances Wireless Capacity at Barnstable County Fairgrounds to Support 2,000 Expected Camporee Attendees *** Girl Scouts Will Take the Pledge to Drive Safely and Earn the AT&T IT CN W8 Patch
EAST FALMOUTH, MA, June 1, 2012 As more than 2,000 New England-area Girl Scouts and their families converge on Barnstable County Fairgrounds for this weekends 100th Anniversary Forever Green Camporee and Festival, AT&T* is boosting network capacity to help its customers have a great wireless experience.

The company has deployed a cell on wheels (COW) at the Barnstable Fairgrounds to accommodate expected increased wireless network demands from a crowd of 2,000 attendees at the event, which runs from June 1 to June 3. The temporary network enhancements are part of AT&Ts ongoing efforts to prepare for and provide the best possible mobile experience during special events in Massachusetts like the Camporee. With thousands of Girl Scouts and their parents attending this weekends event, our goal is for our customers to have an extraordinary experience, whether they are sending a text or uploading a photo to their favorite social networking site, said Patricia Jacobs, president of AT&T New England. This investment in the Camporee is an extension of AT&Ts overall commitment to Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts. As a sponsor of the yearlong celebration of the Girl Scouts 100th Anniversary Celebration, AT&T launched, in March, its IT CN W8 Girl Scouts patch. More than 1,000 Girl Scouts

are expected to take AT&Ts It Can Wait pledge not to text and drive and receive their patches at the Camporeee this weekend. We are grateful to AT&T for investing in girls and helping us celebrate Girl Scouts 100th anniversary year, said Ruth N. Bramson, CEO,Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts. AT&Ts sponsorship will not only enhance the overall Camporee experience for all attendees, but it will help address an urgent safety issue through the It Can Wait pledge. I am so proud that our girls will be leaders in the effort to reduce texting while driving.

AT&T also will provide tablets at the Camporee for use by Girl Scouts and their families to check email or surf the web while in the Girl Scout Store and the Chaperones Coffee House.
