Red Ribbon Week Bookmarks & Candy

October 11-13, 2017

Today we put together the Red Ribbon Week bookmarks. Congrats to Liv Banach for creating the winnings bookmark designs!  We also had several new members join us to help with stickering the candy. On October 13th, we attended the FHS football game to pass out candy and red ribbons for families to tie around trees. Even the school mascot came to help at our table!  We also put a message in the fence that said: FACT: Addiction isn't sweet. by our table AND created Red Ribbon Week hashtag for people to use during the game. 

Tobacco Tricks, NOT Treats

October 5, 2017

Students stuck stickers on candy reading "candy flavored tobacco is a trick, not a treat" and decorated the cafeteria doors with FACT's messages about the dangers of candy-flavored tobacco.   The door will be up the month of October.  Students passed out the candy after school on October 19th.  We also decorated a door with directions about the Red Ribbon Week door decorating contest at the middle school. 

National Night Out

FYI members Laney, Ishika, and Kylee volunteered at National Night Out to educate their peers that most teens do not drink. We played a "Duck Away from Alcohol Parties" game and offered prizes, stickers, and stickers.  About 400 people visited the table. Members also participated in a chalk contest spreading prevention messages to the public prior to National Night Out. 

School Your Community, Banner, Social Media, Greeting Cards & Dress the Part

FYI members Laney, Olivia O, Alayn, Liv B, Justin, Shreya, Bella, and Kylee attend the Brewer game with other local FACT groups to celebrate FACT's Sweet 16th Birthday and a tobacco-free Miller Park. We had so much fun meeting other people with our same interests and spreading the truth about tobacco with the FACT Banner, a message on the score board, posting to social media, and signing a  FACT thank you card to be sent to the Brewers. Laney and Shreya also wore their FACT shirts to the game!  The best part was a Brewer Win!
