With the arrival of a new year, comes maintenance, setting up, double-checking, and more. Coming up on Tuesday, January 5, at 10:00 a.m. the Ogle County Sheriff's Office will conduct the normally scheduled test of the outdoor siren system. But there is a difference this time. 

 

According to WREX TV-13, "technicians will also conduct additional tests, residents may hear a prolonged test during this time".

Authorities have also announced that If you have any questions please contact the Ogle County Sheriff's Office non-emergency number at 815-732-2136.
