As Christmas approaches, festive season celebrations will be held in Dauphin and area.
If you happen to take in some festivities while having some drinks or smoking cannabis, do not drive yourself home. Instead, call the Dauphin R.I.D.E. (Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere) program at 204-638-5707. Volunteers will then come pick up you and your vehicle to bring you home safely. You must have a vehicle to take home in order to use the program. It is also free to use, but they welcome donations.
R.I.D.E. is available Friday and Saturday from 9 pm to 3 am. If you would like to volunteer with the program, call 204-638-1463 or message their facebook page.
As well as being in operation this weekend, the R.I.D.E. Program will be available on the following dates from 9 pm to 3 am:
