 Thanksgiving Holiday Hours Happy Thanksgiving from ImOn Communications!

As always, 24/7 technical support and emergency service will still be available by calling 319-298-6484. However, billing questions, sales, and account specific questions cannot be addressed during that time. We thank you for your understanding and we hope you have a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving. |

Thanksgiving Card Contest
We would like to thank all of the 3rd through 5th grade students who submitted designs for the second annual ImOn Thanksgiving Card Design Contest. We received almost 200 entries in this year's contest, each showcasing fall or Thanksgiving themed artwork! There were so many great designs that our judges had a hard time selecting a winner. In the end, they chose two winners — Keeleigh Meyers, a 4th grader at Madison Elementary School, and Evan Thuente, a 5th grader at St. Matthew Elementary School. These students and their classroom teachers will all receive a $100 gift card from ImOn and the winning designs will be printed on the front of our company Thanksgiving cards. Congratulations!  
November Calendar Photo
Here is a look at the beautiful photo adorning the 2021 ImOn Customer Calendar for the month of November. This photo was submitted by ImOn customer Courtney Ball and shows a Bald Eagle on the Sac and Fox Trail in Cedar Rapids. She also shared that the tree where this eagle nested was badly damaged during the Derecho last year and hopes it will rebuild in the area. Thank you for sharing this beautiful photo with us, Courtney!  ImOn Communications would like to take a moment to honor our United States veterans, and also our active duty military around the world, for your service. We would especially like to recognize the 25 ImOn employees who have served our country over the years. We recognize that the freedoms we enjoy today were built upon the backs of selfless men and women across this nation, willing to risk their lives for their country. Thank you!

Tips and Tools to Keep your Home Secure 
Even though we just put away the Halloween decorations, it is time to get ready for the holidays and one of the biggest shopping seasons of the year. While experts expect stores to be more crowded than they were during the 2020 holiday season, many people will still choose to do the majority of their holiday shopping online. Which means packages will soon begin arriving on your doorstep. But before the packages start rolling in, you may want to think about investing in some kind of home security camera to help keep porch pirates from taking off with your gifts.
Nowadays, there are a lot of choices when it comes to affordable and reliable residential Wi-Fi security systems. We reviewed a couple of the top contenders to help you find the one that works best for your home. It is important to know that most Wi-Fi security systems recommend an Internet speed of at least 1-2Mbps for each Wi-Fi camera unit. That means if you plan to install 3 cameras, it will take up to 6Mpbs of your bandwidth. So you may need to bump up your Internet speed to make sure you can get high-quality camera footage and security alerts whether you're at home, at work, or traveling for the holidays. 
In addition to installing a home security system, another way to stay ahead of burglars is reporting crime or suspicious activity in your neighborhood and being aware of what others have reported. Nextdoor is an app where neighborhoods can come together and share all relevant news happening in the area. Each user is verified so you can be sure your feed stays local to your neighborhood. It's a perfect place to help each other stay on top of any crimes or suspicious activities happening nearby. You should also check to see if your neighborhood has its own social media pages. This is another easy way to keep up with what is happening in your area. Crime Stoppers is a resource for reporting crimes and potential crimes, as well as keeping up to date on crime activity both nationally and in your state and local areas. |
