DO YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO? The Town of Gibbons has a siren alarm system in place. ONE ALARM - this means we require assistance for a community emergency. If available report to the Firehall, corner of 50th Avenue and 49th Street. THREE ALARM - this means the situation is all clear and if you are out on a search or rescue report back to the Firehall. CONTINUOUS ALARM - continuous for one minute, then quiet for one minute, then repeated means a natural disaster. This is an alert to listen for the informaton to be given to you by a loud hailer. This would only be used if time permits. If time does not permit, the announcement may be made over the Alberta Emergency Public Warning system. This system may be activated by the Town of Gibbons or the Province of Alberta and is aired over television and radio stations.
