Operation Red Nose will have volunteers out this Friday and Saturday nights, ready to provide safe rides home to holiday season revelers.

To get a ride, call 250-962-7433 between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m. Clients must have a vehicle with valid B.C. license plates. All donations go towards youth and amateur sport organizations in Prince George.

Operation Red Nose still requires about 75 more volunteers, the equivalent of 25 road teams, to help out on New Year's Eve to meet the demand for rides they expect.

They typically provide between 150 and 200 rides on that night alone.

Those interested can apply online at www.ornpg.ca.

Volunteers who'd like to be part of a road team must be 19 years old and have a valid B.C. driver's license.

Road volunteers can be designated drivers (drive the client's vehicle), navigators to work with the designated driver and escort drivers (transports the team from the client's pickup location to the drop-off location).
