Operation Red Nose searching for volunteers
With the Christmas season just around the corner, organizers of the Operation Red Nose initiative in Prince Albert are once again searching for volunteers to help provide safe rides home during the holidays.
Operation Red Nose is a national road safety campaign aimed at reducing impaired driving during the holiday season. After a night out callers can contact volunteers with Operation Red Nose on designated evenings during December for a safe ride home.
Local organizer James Wilm said this is the fifth year that the Prince Albert Lions Club has helped to organize the project. He says it continues to grow in popularity each year.
“As of last year we had the highest number of safe rides in the province,” said Wilm. “We took well over 500 people home, so that was good in itself.”
