HIGH RIVER – There will be a 3 – minute siren testing at noon on January 5 as part of the Safe Communities Alert Network or SCAN.
This testing is part of the Town’s ongoing emergency preparedness plan. All residents are encouraged to sign up for the High River ALERT system.

In an emergency, go to one of the following sources to find potential life-saving information:
