Kudos to Everyone in Thunder Bay and to Operation Red Nose
There might be a number of factors that led to the number of impaired driving casing being reported by the Thunder Bay Police to drop to nil for the month of December however, it can’t be denied that the efforts of Operation Red Nose has been one of the strongest forces behind such a feat.
Although Operation Red Nose is just at its first year of non-profit operations offering a full service free ride to Thunder Bay locals who have had a drink or two during the month of December, its success is a no-brainer.
To be more specific, the ORN has successfully taken 452 service calls which in turn led to a total of 267 safe rides home for an astonishing 650 people across 6,436 km.
In return, the efforts of ORN’s volunteers led to almost $5,000 in total donations which is going to benefit St. Johns Ambulance.
With a couple of nights left for ORN, everyone involved in it should be very pleased with themselves. Although their efforts might not be solely responsible for making impaired driving a thing of the past for the holiday season, the figures above should be more than enough reason to say their campaign has been a huge success in Thunder Bay.
