Applies as 2nd ACA Host

On September 1st, 1999, Richard Hill, Sheriff of Stone County,
Missouri in Galena, Missouri, sent in the newest application to become a Host on
the ACA System. This new Host, approximately 60 miles south-west of the original
ACA Host in Rogersville Missouri, will further extend the system's reach into the
corners of Southwest Missouri, Northwest Arkansas, Northeast Oklahoma, and
Southeast Kansas, as well as effectively covering the heavily traffic area of Branson,
Missouri.

Stone County Sheriff's Department
Newest ACA Host

This afternoon, Ed Thornton of Net Focus completed the installation of the ACA
Host system in the new Sheriff's department building in Galena, Missouri.....
nice building by the way!
With the approval of Sheriff Richard Hill, the ACA System was sucessfully installed
on the computer which is to be operated by Paul Branstetter and Bill Heinzl....
good guys... I even think I talked them into attending next years Bikers for Kids
fundraiser. Paul attended the demonstration of the system in Springfield on August
18th and both officers believe this can be an invaluable tool for their department.
They also mentioned contacting other law enforcement agencies both in the area
and in Northern Arkansas to add them as ACA Contacts and see if they would be
interested in becoming ACA Hosts.
We at Bikers for Kids are especially proud that the Stone County Sheriff's
Department has joined our efforts due to many of our members living in the area
and Stone County being the home of Hootontown, where our annual fundraisers
are held.

Shannon County Sheriff's Department
Applies as 3rd ACA Host

September 4, 1999, Sheriff Reeves of the Shannon County Sheriff Dept., in Eminence, Missouri, applied to be a host for the ACA software making them the third police agency to sign up with CAF. This new Host, approximately 100 miles south-southwest of Saint Louis, will further extend the system's reach into the eastern portions of Missouri and into the edges of the Saint Louis Area, as well as adding additional coverage to all of the eastern and central Missouri area.With the addition of Shannon County (east central Missouri) and Stone County (southwest Missouri), in combination with Rogersville, we are close to having the entire southern half of the state of Missouri blanketed by the ACA System.

The Badders will be having a fundraiser at the campground in association with Bikers 4 Kids & BACA to raise funds to cover this installation with no cost to the Shannon County Sheriff's Department. (see Events)

"We at Bikers 4 Kids are especially excited about Stone County joining the ACA
Host system due to the fact that our annual fund raiser is held at Hootontown in
Stone County. They are great people with a tough job and we hope that this alert
system will be an invaluable tool."
