A free ride back home, after a night out, is more possible than you think.
Operation Red Nose is coming back for another year. The free service provides those, who might have had too much to drink, a safe ride home in their own car.
Planning Committee Coordinator Tony Taylor says they have their kick-off for this year's season, tonight:
"We’re going to kick off the season. It's 6:30 at Lakeview Inn and Suites, and well have a few people on hands to say some words, we’ll name our honourary chair, and then just be on hand to answer questions about what the seasons all about, how people can apply, all that kinda stuff. Basically give people details about the season".
Although the service is free and run by volunteers, they accept donations which are given to organizations in the City. Donations have gone to the Boys and Girls Club and the Troy Anand Fund in past years.
Taylor says they’re still looking for volunteers for this year.
This is the 17th year in a row the service is being offered in Thompson.
