Sussex County - More than 800
elementary- and middle-school students throughout Sussex
County entered the “What’s Your Anti-Drug” contest, sponsored
by the Sussex County Coalition for Healthy and Safe Families,
a program of the Center for Prevention and Counseling in
Newton.
The contest kicked off Red Ribbon Week, when
people pledge to stay drug free and join the fight against
drug use.
The contest encourages children to think
about the people or things in their lives that help keep them
drug free. Hundreds of “anti-drugs” were named among the
entries, including soccer, reading, cheerleading, school,
siblings, art, dance, best friends, pets, and grandpa.
