TODAY'S PROGRAM, introduced by Program Chairman Michelle Robbins, was Judy Impiccini from  MADD <LINK>. Mothers Against Drunk Driving {MADD} has a three part program:  to stop drunk driving, to support the victims of alcohol crashes and to prevent underage drinking.  There is a drunk crash once every 30 minutes and in 2006, there were 17,500 alcohol related deaths. As is our custom, a book was donated to the Nellie McCall Library at the David McCall Elementary School and duly signed by the speaker. The book was titled "Smash, Mash, Crash".

 

A STAND UP BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING was held right after the regular meeting.
