Today started the beginning of my 3 day Elks DAP Alaska tour. I presented three 45 minute presentations to students at Colony High school and Palmer High school. We discussed the dangers associated with alcohol and marijuana use and the impacts it has on our bodies and minds. Students were able to demonstrate the “fatal vision” goggles and walk the line among their peers. I brought my humor and knowledge to the stage in the hope that these students will carry the message to their peers. Then this evening I conducted a 60 minute parent training on how to talk to adolescents about alcohol and substance use but don’t know how to get started. This training was open to the public and is designed for parents, counselors, teachers, church members and family members. This tour was sponsored by the Elks Association State Drug Awareness Program (DAP).
Thanks for having us!
