Friday's D.A.R.E. pizza party
at the Lincoln Park District brought in about 200 sixth-grade
students. These are all
students whose schools participate in the D.A.R.E. programs
administered by either the Lincoln Police Department or the
Logan County sheriff's office.
One of the primary purposes of the D.A.R.E.
programs is to show young people that they can have fun, be cool
and have great friends without using drugs or alcohol.
The program throughout the school year brings
officers into the various classrooms to discuss drug and alcohol
abuse and how to say no to those who might try to influence young
people to abuse these products.
