OCSAPC was able to bring the research based prevention program, Keep a Clear Mind, to Wheeling Park Day Campers. We also added some fun reinforcement activities including a talk show, sculpture, writing their own rap song about remaining free of drug and alcohol, and a choices obstacle course. We had great weather and great participation from the 9-12 year old Ohio County students.
Pictured are students creating sculpture with cigarette packaging refuse. We talked about how much money one could save if they quit smoking for an extended period of time. The sculptures represent what they could buy with the money saved.
Also pictured are children watching We Are The Future youth perform free-style raps about staying off drugs and alcohol and reaching their goals. The kids then broke into groups and wrote their own songs and preformed them.

This is great program. Drug is dangerous for health.
