Last summer some of our students and programming mentors developed our own team communication system. It sends out SMS text messages and emails to students, mentors, parents, and alumni. Team leaders can designate groups or individuals to receive messages and can even schedule messages to go out at a future time (like first thing the next morning).

The system was designed to host communications for more than one organization on the same server and keep them separate. Our team plans to offer to host for other teams and even outside organizations like scout troops or church groups.

We also plan to publish the source code so other teams or organizations can contribute or even host their own system. We plan to post a new thread to CD soon with more details and link to the source code.
