The popular Operation Red Nose holiday campaign is back for its 21st season of operation as teams of dedicated volunteers hit the roads throughout holiday weekends, helping to keep impaired drivers from getting behind the wheel.
A unique designated driving program, Operation Red Nose creates the opportunity for individuals who have been drinking, or who do not feel fit to drive, to get driven home in their own vehicle by a support team of ORN volunteers. There is no fee for the service, but donations are always accepted. Over the course of the last 20 years, more than $606,000 has been raised in support of Pronghorn Athletics.
Operation Red Nose is in service this holiday season on the following dates: Nov. 27-28; Dec. 3-5; Dec. 10-12; Dec. 17-19 and New Year’s Eve. Those wishing to use the service can call 403-320-4155 from 9:30 p.m. to 3 a.m.
The campaign is in need of volunteers, especially during the Dec. 17-19 weekend and for New Year's Eve.
Anyone interested in volunteering with Operation Red Nose can call Pronghorn Athletics at 403-329-2681.
To use the service, call 403-320-4155 from 9:30 p.m. to 3 a.m. on nights of operation.
