Ooooohhhhhhh! Excited!😀😎

🚨 River Sentry Test Notification 🚨

Tomorrow evening at around 9:00 PM, Vista Camps will be conducting a test of our River Sentry Flood Warning System. This test also serves as a valuable training opportunity for our staff, allowing them to hear the sirens, review emergency procedures, and practice moving to their designated muster locations.

As part of the test, you may hear warning sirens throughout camp. This is only a test and there is no emergency.

We appreciate your understanding as we continue to prioritize the safety of our campers, staff, and camp community.

Thank you!

Our first version app is now available in the Apple Store. It allows you to explore installations and sample alert sounds.

It will continue to gain value as our towers are wirelessly connected to each other and the internet. Going forward, we intend the app to provide sensor status and geo location specific alerts whenever in proximity or downstream of a River Sentry tower. This will work on any river where our towers are installed and data connectivity is available.

Download the app to explore the current systems and receive future updates as we continue to develop this new technology.

Built for constant watch and rapid intervention. Effective flash flood tech doesn't have to be expensive or centrally managed. Listen to this unit sing during a final validation wet test.
