The Dauphin RIDE Program was back for the first time since 2019 and had more volunteers come out than any year since 2016.
Throughout December, the RIDE Program had 48 people give approximately 725 hours of their time. They made 141 trips this winter, getting 282 people home safe with their vehicles, and organizers say those numbers show the importance of the program.
"Despite coming out of a pandemic and gatherings still not to the level of the past, the number of people utilizing the Dauphin RIDE Program reinforces the demand and need for the program. Community support, awareness, promotion, and volunteerism is the driving factor of the program’s success."
The program wants to thank all of its volunteers, sponsors, and supporters for making it another successful and safe holiday season.
