The Baldwin County Community Alliance is sponsoring an underage drinking and prescription drug use prevention campaign, and they need your help. Submit your creative idea for a commercial encouraging middle and high school students not to drink alcoholic beverages or misuse prescription drugs. Focus should be on the dangers and negative effects when youth have easy access to and availability of alcohol and prescription drugs. (Cont.)

If your idea wins, they will produce the commercial and you can be in it! The overall winner will be selected out of the winning entries from the schools and his/her commercial will be produced and air on FOX10TV and WFNA. See Mrs. Beverly, School Social Worker, in the front office for entry forms. The contest ends December 12th.

Prom Committee members will meet Tuesday after school in Mrs. Champion’s room.
