HYPER-REACH
Shamokin Dam Borough has linked with Snyder County to provide Borough residents with Hyper-Reach service. Hyper-Reach is a community alerting system capable of sending text messages to your cell phone, text to voice messages to your land line or e-mails in time of emergency. This is a community alerting system and is NOT used for any commercial purpose. It will enable Shamokin Dam Borough or our police to instantly relay vital information to Borough residents. There is no cost to sign up and an added benefit would be receiving Snyder County alerts as well. To sign up all you need to do is follow the link below and provide your preferred contact information. Do that, and you’re all set. Because not every Snyder County municipality is participating, alerts for Borough residents will be send only to those whose Zip Code is 17876.
