Thanks Doris! (and a look at upcoming events.)
We met with Doris on June 10th. She was very gracious about sharing about her loss and how Jessica felt about this group. Jessica very much looked forward to our meetings. Jessica felt that what we were doing in organizing sober fun activities was important.
Also Doris gave us 12 Tickets to the July 20th Pirate Ball game and 12 Bucs hats to put on at the game. This was a great meeting even though only two Coffee House members were present. Two parents also came. It was a nice small cozy meeting.
Of course, we would love it if more people turned out. However, we don't mandate that people come in to support our meetings and that is one way that we help insure that at any on time it is a positive peer group.
We are Planning a July 1, Sunday afternoon picinic, probably in Shenley Park. Parets welcome. Stay tuned for more details.
Free Summer Driving Camp!
Subject: Free Summer Driving Camp for Teens
June 26, 27 and 28 * Consol Energy Park
Vehicle crashes are the No. 1 killer of teenagers in America. Nearly 7,000 teens die annually in such accidents, including 214 in Pennsylvania in 2005, according to the most recent data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
In 2003, Ford Motor Company Fund, the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA) and a panel of safety experts developed Driving Skills for Life (DSFL). The program focuses on hazard recognition, vehicle handling, speed management and space management -- skills necessary for safe driving and often not fully understood by new drivers. Educational information on DSFL has been provided to all area high schools and there is an exciting interactive Web site, www.drivingskillsforlife.com.
Ford Motor Company Fund, GHSA, KDKA-TV and Westfield Insurance are inviting more than 600 newly licensed Pittsburgh-area teens to attend Taking the Lead - Driving Skills for Life Summer Camp. These one-day camps will be held Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, June 26, 27 and 28, at Consol Energy Park, Home to the Washington Wild Things in Washington, PA.
