Kindersley RCMP partner with Red Lion Inn and Westberry School for holiday campaign

Have you shopped at the Red Lion Liquor Store recently? You might have noticed that your paper bag looks a little different than usual.

Kindersley RCMP have partnered with Westberry School and the Red Lion Inn for a special Holiday initiative. Students from Westberry School have decorated paper bags with Holiday pictures and anti drinking and driving messages which will be handed out to customers with their purchase over the next week or two. It is the hope of everyone involved that the student’s artwork and messages will make people rethink their choices when they are drinking alcohol.

Kindersley RCMP will be working through the Holidays, patrolling the streets and highways, and are looking forward to speaking with designated sober drivers and family members providing safe rides home.

If you see a suspected impaired driver, pull over and immediately call 911. Signs of a possible impaired driver include: lane drifting; driving too fast, slow or at an inconsistent speed; not using proper signals; making very wide turns; approaching and leaving intersections too slowly or quickly; and driving without headlights or leaving high beams or turn signals on.

Kindersley RCMP would like to wish everyone a safe and Happy Holiday Season. Please drink responsibly.
