It’s Prom Time!!

ADAP — Mon, 10 May 2010 17:41:48 +0000

It’s prom time, a milestone in a young person’s life. And while prom is a rite of passage and a coming of age, it’s also a time when teens are in danger, either from drinking alcohol themselves, or by getting in a car with a friend who has had too much to drink. ADAP is committed to keeping Weston’s youth safe this prom time.

We have joined with Weston Youth Services & Weston High School PTO to sponsor a funny but thought-provoking preprom presentation by comedian Bernie McGrenahan, who helps high school and college students to learn from his life experiences.

Bernie is changing the way students look at partying by sharing his life story. He is a former ‘A’ student/athlete and high-risk drinker, who lost it all, beat the odds, and climbed his way back up. Bernie shares ‘inside tips’ to when a party stops being a party. A stand-up comedy show first, followed by a powerful and inspirational message on how students can achieve their goals. In addition to Bernie’s talk, ADAP’s Youth Leadership Council students will be on hand throughout pre-prom awareness day with information for students on alcohol and drug awareness and prom safety.

Join ADAP in helping keep teens safe during prom and party season!
