Program: DARE PROGRAM
The following officers talked about the DARE program and their involvement:
Michael Spera, Sam Barnes, Kevin Roche, Ryan Walsh and Chris Olsen
All of these men have been active in this important program for quite some time and have gained much experience in working with children and their families. Our club has supported the DARE Program for many years. DARE is all about giving kids a foundation from which they can make good decisions. Parents still need to be involved but DARE helps provide a foundation for discussion. Kids have many challenges these days and knowing they have a support system in place can help. These officers are there for them as a resourse that they have come to trust. There will be a DARE sponsored trip to a roller skating rink in Groton next week and a good time will be had by all!
The DARE graduation will be April 23 at 6:30 at the Middle School.
