The town of Crothersville recently initiated a new mass communication service for town residents called REACH Alert.
“This new service will allow us to immediately share important information regarding things like water line breaks, boil water advisories, road closures, delays due to construction or accidents, hazmat situations, AMBER & Silver alerts, police actions and civic events, “ said clerk treasurer Danieta Foster.
“But as good as this service is, if you don’t register, we can’t share important information with you,” she urged.
She said that registered residents can receive a text message, voice call or an email notification.
To register residents should go to www.reachalert.com and click on Sign Up (top of page, far right).
Next go to Network and type Crothersville and select the town’s name from the dropdown list.
Follow the prompts and enter your preferred contact information.
When you enter your address, click on it when it appears in the drop-down list.
“Once you have successfully completed your registration, REACH Alert will send you a confirmation text or email,” Foster said. “If you do not have computer access or experience any difficulty, contact REACH at 877-307-9313 and they will help you complete your registration in about a minute.”
“And remember,” she added, “if you don’t register, you won’t receive our messages.”
