Members of Warren County Safe Communities Coalition will be at Carol’s Speakeasy Lounge, 4440 S. Dixie Hwy., from 3 to 6 p.m. Sunday to remind people to be responsible drinkers and drivers. Gift cards will be available while supplies last to drivers who visit the coalition’s booth at the bar.
Ann Brock, coordinator for Warren County Safe Communities Coalition and trauma outreach at Atrium Medical Center, said football fans need to remember to “drink responsibly.”
She said the gift cards for using a mobile app will make it “even easier to arrive home safely.”
In 2021, there were 220 OVI related accidents in Warren County, with one of those being a fatal accident, according to the Ohio Department of Public Safety.
The coalition is also joining forces with area pizza restaurants to deliver an important message. Customers who order pizza from over a dozen local participating businesses on Sunday will see a special sticker on the box. Coalition members hope the message – “Fans Don’t Let Fans Drive Drunk” – will give them food for thought.
