“We’ve never done anything like this before,” President Trina Cockle said. “It just takes time to get all your pieces together.”

First they had to pay for permits from the city to erect the signs, and then get approval from everyone involved.

The lumber was donated by Rona and the Prince Albert Co-op.

“We got some good deals so we’re very happy, it’s just a bigger process than we had originally thought,” Cockle said.

Cockle says there’s a real need for the organization in Prince Albert.

She says the size of their organization alone is enough to demonstrate how important it is to the city.

“In larger cities like Edmonton or Toronto they have four or five people in their membership, and we have like…40. Obviously it’s a need that we’ve met in this city. I think it’s extremely important.”

Having crossed this task off their list, MADD Prince Albert is now focused on project red ribbon. They’ll be working with the Prince Albert Police Services to help with check stops.

They also hope to work with the Prince Albert RCMP as well.

The red ribbon campaign is MADD Canada’s annual awareness campaign, run during the holidays from November to the beginning of January. It’s their longest running awareness program.
