Marion Township (Berks County) Alerts

Sign up to receive emergency alerts that could directly impact you and your family

Marion Township (Berks County) is able to send you emergency alerts via text message, email, pager, or voice mail (in extreme cases), based on your preferences. It is important that we collect this contact information because many households no longer utilize traditional land-based telephone lines. You will have the ability to un-subscribe from these alerts at any time. You will also have the ability to select which notification group you would like to receive alerts from.

The system is intended to be used for emergency alerts, as well as non-emergency incidents that may have significant impacts to residents. Emergency Alerts could be related to specific hazards that require some kind of action be taken such as road closures, evacuation, shelter in place, boil water orders, etc. Non-emergency alerts could include changes to meeting dates, trash/recycling collection delays, etc. This list is not meant to be all inclusive, and demonstrates that this system will not be used for routine information. In addition to receiving information on your wireless device, you may also receive notification on your land telephone line (if you have one) depending on the type of incident or event. 

Please provide your address and preferred method(s) of contact. Adding your address will allow tailoring so you do not receive alerts that don’t pertain to your geographical area.

These alerts are provided free of charge, however standard text messaging rates and other charges may apply.

If you wish to subscribe to SMS text messages only, text MarionTownship to 38276.  There is also a mobile app available; myAlerts

If you are having trouble with sign up, or have general questions, please contact the Township office.
