In 2014, a new fan out system was purchased. This system enables us to send phone, text and email messages to all of our members. The message could be an alert about suspicious activity in the area, a report from the RCMP about what is happening locally or a notice of an upcoming meeting.
The Phone Tree program enables us to contact people quickly and can be accessed remotely by the RCMP or other authorized people to send out alerts. A member can be contacted by phone, email and text or any combination of the three. The system tries calling three times and will leave a message on voice mail or your answering machine. We will usually call between 8 am and 4 pm for calls relating to upcoming meetings. Urgent calls may come at any hour.
Any new fan outs will now also be added to the website and our Facebook page as well.
