Alert Banner

Alert banners are an excellent way to bring attention to any changes to events, emergency cancellations, etc.

Works in conjunction with the Alert module to display an alert at the top of the page. Alerts are good for bringing to the attention of viewers changes to events, emergency cancellations, etc.
