Monday sucks enough already, now I'm going to make it worse by reminding you that you're old:
Teens, parents, and community members-don't miss this powerful program Tuesday from Pierre and from Mobridge on Wednesday. The featured speakers are from across the state and country.
When we launched Think and Drive-Stay Alive 23 years ago, drinking and driving was the biggest concern. While that remains an issue, today's teens face even more challenges including vaping, suicide, drugs, incarceration, social pressures, and more.
This year's program will tackle these real-life issues head on. Join us for an eye-opening discussion that could save lives.
Your choices matter. Your future matters. #ThinkAndDrive #StayAlive #TeenSafety
