It is the last night of Operation Red Nose and it’s expected to be the busiest yet.

Both coordinators for St. Malo and La Broquerie say New Year’s Eve is the night where they need the most volunteers but both are reporting to be short with only hours to spare until the night begins. 

"We’re ready with only two teams tonight so we’re going to do the best that we can," says Gosselin who adds most people are either busy or just tired from the holidays making it difficult to find volunteers. 

La Broquerie/Steinbach says they currently have five teams registered but are hoping to have ten to be able to keep up with the demand. 

A team typically consists of three or four people. 

Both Gosselin and Francois Grenier of La Broquerie/Steinbach say it is not too late to get involved.

To volunteer in the St. Malo area, you can call 204-746-0263 and for La Broquerie/Steinbach, email: volunteer@operationrednosesteinbachlabroquerie.ca.
