Making shared regions optional

Is there a way to make shared regions optional. My clients site has a 'winter alert' relating to access and they don't want to have to display this all year round. I've made it a shared region as it appears on a few pages of the website. Is there a way I can add a checkbox for them to switch it on or off - so it's always there in the backend and they just enable it when they need to?

thanks

Something like this should do it?

We do this all the time on pages to let customers set up things (news mostly) in advance ...

<perch:if exists="publish">
- - - Your existing template code here - - -
<perch:content id="publish" type="checkbox" label="Publish?" order="1" value="yes" suppress="true" help="Tick the box to publish the alert" />
</perch:if>
