Be Prepared for All Emergencies
The City of Bonham Office of Emergency Management encourages you to be safe and learn how to prepare you and your family for any emergency or disaster.
Government agencies can quickly become overwhelmed in a large-scale disaster and having knowledge in first aid, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), or simply having a kit of emergency supplies on hand can make a huge difference in helping to overcome the initial difficulties that can occur. Government agencies have a wealth of information available to the public online, or contact our office to learn more about educational opportunities available in our area.

Testing of Emergency Warning System
The Bonham Police Department now conducts monthly tests of the Emergency Warning System, also known as the Storm Siren. This siren will be tested at noon on the 1st Wednesday of every month.
In the event of bad weather, testing will be delayed until the following Friday.
Note: If maintenance is necessary, there may be a need to perform repeated activations of the Emergency Warning System in order to troubleshoot and/or repair any system problems.
