Safe Ride Available for Halloween Weekend

[October 30, 2014]  LINCOLN – There’s a safer alternative to driving for anyone who has too much to drink during the upcoming Halloween weekend. On October 31st and November 1st, Safe Ride will be available in Lincoln to those who need it. Safe Ride is a free ride home sponsored by the Healthy Communities Partnership.

“For many people, Halloween is a time to celebrate and get together. Healthy Communities Partnership offers Safe Rides to help keep the streets safer for everyone. Our hope is that the community will remember the service is available and that bartenders will suggest it when necessary,” said Angela Stoltzenburg, Community Partnerships Manager.

To receive a free ride home within the city limits on any of these nights, individuals can ask their bartender for a Safe Ride ticket and they will receive a free ride home for A Green Cab Company.

Healthy Communities Partnership is a collaborative organization comprised of community agencies and private individuals striving to create the healthiest community in America. It is financially supported by the Abraham Lincoln Healthcare Foundation. For more information or for updates, “like” Healthy Communities Partnership on Facebook or call 217-605-5008.
