Operation Red Nose aims to keep streets safe during holiday season
Getting a safe ride home while supporting a great cause.
That’s the goal of Operation Red Nose, who is getting set for their tenth year of service in the Battlefords. Proceeds of the event go directly to KidSport in the Battlefords, and all it takes is a call for impaired drivers to get home safely.
David Schell, co-chair with KidSport and Operation Red Nose, has now been a driver for four years and said the service is an important one for the community.
“It’s a good way to keep intoxicated people off the streets,” he said. “The money raised goes to KidSport that allows any kids facing financial barriers to have the opportunity to participate in sports.”
