Operation Red Nose had a successful first weekend of taking vehicles and their owners home safely in the Flin Flon area.  The Rotary Club’s Committee Co-Chair Ted Hewitt says they had ten rides over Friday and Saturday nights.  He says in past years the first weekend was notoriously quiet and this past weekend was no exception.  He says they had good coverage for any people who wanted to use the service and he thanks those who volunteered from the Border Explorers and the Steelworkers noting even though they were not overly busy they got together for an evening of fellowship and enjoyed themselves. He says they expect this coming Friday and Saturday to be much busier.

Hewitt adds they are still looking for groups and individuals to volunteer for December 20th and 21st, 27th and 28th and New Years Eve.  Volunteer forms are at Flin Flon Insurance, Standard Insurance and Scotia Bank on Main Street.  If you have questions you can call Ted at 204-687-7450.
