The Logan County Fair
Safe rides available for fair
weekend
T
he Healthy Communities
Partnership is encouraging those
who celebrate a little too much
at the Logan County Fair beer tent this
weekend to call for a free and safe ride
home.
On Friday and Saturday, the Safe Ride
program will be available in Lincoln to
those who need it. Safe Ride is a free ride
home, sponsored by the Healthy Behaviors
Task Force, an initiative of the Healthy
Communities Partnership.
“Safe Ride helps to keep our streets safer
on nights when children and families are
more likely to be celebrating away from
home. Our hope is that the community will
remember the service is available and use it
when necessary,” said Angela Stoltzenburg,
marketing and community partnerships
manager.
Safe Ride is also available during the art
and balloon fest, Labor Day weekend, the
night before Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve
and New Year’s Eve.
To receive a free ride home within the
city limits on any of these nights, call
American Cab of Lincoln at 735-9696.
Healthy Communities Partnership is a
collaborative organization comprised of several
community agencies. It is supported by the
Abraham Lincoln Healthcare Foundation. For
more information and updates, individuals
should “like” Healthy Communities
Partnership on Facebook or visit www.
