Find out about events happening in Boone County?
Nixle.com is a free service that allows followers (subscribers) to be notified via email or text of current events in Boone County. These notifications can be in the form of Alerts, Advisories, Community, and Traffic. An Alert is an event that requires immediate action such as a spotted tornado, an Amber Alert, a Golden Alert, or perhaps an escaped inmate from the jail. We’ll use an Advisory to notify residents of crime trends such as car break-ins and suggest precautions. Community would include information concerning a citizens academy class or junior deputy graduation. Traffic is currently used the most frequently warning motorists of major accidents and suggesting alternate routes to take. Nixle.com is much like Twitter with the added benefit of security. Residents can be assured if they receive a notification from Nixle.com it originated from the Boone County Sheriff’s Department.
