Operation Red Nose has wrapped up another holiday season of getting people and their vehicles home safely.  The Rotary Club’s Committee Chair Ted Hewitt says they provided service for 9 nights.  He explains this year they provided a total of 216 rides and received nearly 4 thousand dollars in client donations.  In addition to ridership donations they also received about 4 thousand dollars in local business sponsorship donations and in March they expect to receive an additional 4 thousand dollars plus in provincial corporate donations.  He adds this should allow them to provide between 12 to 13 thousand dollars for children’s activities with preference in organized sports within the community during 2020.

Hewitt notes Operation Red Nose could not be a success without the support of area businesses, all the volunteers and the many people who use the service.
