SPOTLIGHT:
Siren Watch Program-monitor the Franklin County Outdoor Warning System
Updated 1/24/13
We still need volunteers for Siren Watch! Are you looking for a volunteer opportunity that only takes five minutes a week AND that you can do from work or home by phone or computer? Siren Watchers monitor one assigned outdoor warning siren every Wednesday after the noon test (weather permitting) and report online. FCEM&HS staff monitors reports and investigates any potential system errors. Contact Susan Henry at susanhenry@franklincountyohio.gov for more information.
