BASES Recognized for local Business Achievement Award
BASES was recently nominated for an Innovation award for the Sarnia-Lambton Chamber of Commerce’s upcoming Business Achievement Awards. This recognition is the result of the work done over the past year on Sarnia-Lambton Alerts, a community notification tool. Sarnia-Lambton Alerts, formally known as My Community Notification Network, was re-branded in April to reflect the evolution of the notification tool and further identify ‘Sarnia-Lambton Alerts’ as a primary source for community notifications in the region.
With the introduction of the Online News Act earlier this year, it has become increasingly challenging to share news on the social media channels that many people have grown accustomed to for their news content. This emphasizes the importance of having alternative notification methods, such as Sarnia-Lambton Alerts to reliably deliver important notices to the community in a timely manner.
Sarnia-Lambton Alerts is used by local municipalities and industrial organizations to broadcast crucial community notices, including information about road closures, industrial activities, and shelter-in-place advisories. Registering for Sarnia-Lambton Alerts is both easy and free! You can sign up online by clicking HERE or downloading the Everbridge app to receive notifications directly to your smart phone or hand-held device.
BASES would like to thank the Sarnia-Chamber of Commerce for the recognition and extend best wishes to all the esteemed local nominees for the 2023 Business Achievement Awards, scheduled for October 25, 2023. For information or tickets, please visit www.slchamber.ca.
