Operation Red Nose completed its third weekend of getting people and their vehicles home safely in the Flin Flon area. The Rotary Club’s Committee Chair Ted Hewitt says it was their best weekend so far this year. He reports Operation Red Nose supplied a total of 68 rides and volunteers from the Women’s Resource Center, Friendship Center, Creighton School staff and McIsaac School staff worked the Friday and Saturday. He adds even though Operation Red Nose is a free service those that received the service were very generous with donations and all the funds collected stay in the community for children’s activities preferably organized sports.
Operation Red Nose continues to provide service Friday and Saturday nights until December 28th as well as New Years Eve and they still need volunteers for December 22nd, 28th and New Years Eve.
