The Rotary Club of Flin Flon has launched Operation Red Nose for another season. Chair Ted Hewitt says the idea is to get people and their vehicles home safely when they’re out celebrating the Christmas season. He says although the service is free they accept donations from people using the service, provincial organizations, local groups and businesses which benefit the community. He explains the money that they raise is required to be committed to children’s activities and organized sports for the kids and they donate on average about 12 to 13 thousand dollars a year to these activities and this is their 19th year.
Operation Red Nose starts tomorrow night and runs every Friday and Saturday from 9 to 2 until December 28th as well as New Years Eve by calling 687-7331. If you can volunteer to help with driving or navigating pick up a form at local insurance offices or online at www.operationrednose.com fill it out and take to the RCMP offices in Flin Flon or Creighton with two pieces of identification.
