Operation Red Nose Quinte Kicks Off the 2024 Season

In Local, Upcoming Events

The 2024 season of Operation Red Nose Quinte kicked off this morning with this year’s Honorary Operation Red Nose Co-Chairs, Patricia Guernsey from Team Guernsey and Mike Callaghan,
former Belleville Police Chief. Operation Red Nose is a unique designated driver program that operates
for free, thanks to a dedicated group of volunteers.

Operation Red Nose Co-Chair, Patricia Guernsey shares, “What could be more satisfying than being able
to see the positive impact of your actions? By volunteering for Operation Red Nose, you enable many
motorists to get home safely this holiday season”.

“Whether you volunteer along, with colleagues or friends, your contribution will make a real difference
in your community. It’s the ultimate festive volunteer experience!” says Co-Chair, Mike Callaghan.

The more people that call for rides, the more help is needed to make sure no one is kept waiting for
long. Whether on the road or inside the headquarters, many volunteer positions are available. If you
have an evening to spare and a valid driver’s, we’d love to have you on our team! Visit our website to
