The Dauphin RIDE program had another successful year.
Sho-Sho Shuttleworth-Lafontaine says the program made sure a lot of people made it home safely.
“The weekends we were running, we had lots of participating people that were needing safe rides home,” said Shuttleworth-Lafontaine. “We were able to get everyone home in a fairly speedy fashion.”
Sho-Sho added that in the program’s first week they were struggling with volunteers, but by the next week they had enough to run smoothly.
That being said, New Year’s Eve is the RIDE Program’s busiest night of the year, and they are looking for more volunteers.
Some things that Sho-Sho said to keep in mind is they will go wherever you need to go whether that be Ste. Rose or Winnipegosis, but they want volunteers to be done driving at 3 am. If you need a ride, they recommend calling far enough in advance that the driver can be home by 3.
The Dauphin RIDE Program will drive you and your vehicle home from wherever you are, if you need a ride call 204-638-5707
