The program operates on Friday and Saturday starting November 29th and running until December 31st.
“We’ll drive to wherever your party is. Get you into your vehicle. The chauffer and navigator will drive you home. The chase driver follows behind, picks up the other two volunteers and we’ll go on to the next person who needs to be driven home,” said Edward Edwards of the Queen City Kinsmen.
The service is free, but donations are welcome – they’re given back to community organizations aimed at helping youth.
