Red Ribbon Week was derived from the memory of a drug enforcement agent who lost his life while attempting to decrease illegal growing and selling of drugs. While his family awaited news of his whereabouts, they displayed or wore a red ribbon to offer hope for his safe return. Although he died in the line of duty, we continue to use the Red Ribbon symbol in October as a reminder of his important mission. We invite you to join in Red Ribbon Week activities by participating in the following "theme days".
Monday: Wear sweats - "No Drugs, No Alcohol. . . No Sweat"
Tuesday: Wear a necktie - "Don't Let Drugs "Tie" You Up"
Wednesday: Wear crazy socks - "Sock It To Drugs"
Thursday: Wear pink - "Drugs Stink
Friday: Wear something of your favorite sports team - "Team Up Against Drugs"
