🚨 No travel advisory

Sheriff has implemented a no travel advisory due to white out conditions. Please do not drive if possible. Give yourself plenty of time to get your destination.  make sure your gas tank is full, pack, blankets, and water. If you go in the ditch, it will take some extra time for responders to get to you. 

I encourage everybody in our community and our service area to sign up for smart 911.

I encourage everybody in our community and our service area to sign up for smart 911. 

As many of you know, CodeRED – Wilkin County’s emergency notification system experienced a worldwide security breech last month and the system was decommissioned. Wilkin County is now working with Smart911 (Rave Solutions) to provide emergency notifications.

The system is called “Wilkin Alerts”. Similar to CodeRED -this system will allow the Sheriff’s Office to send timely information directly to residents via text, email or phone about severe weather, threats to public safety, and other emergency situations.

County residents will need to register with Wilkin Alerts to receive messages. Data from the old CodeRED system did not transfer to the new system.

To register – text “wilkinalerts” (all one word – lowercase) to 226787 or visit https://wilkincounty.gov/wilkinalerts
