In an effort to make teens more aware of how the choices we make affect others in our community, Active Balanced Community visited local high schools and talked to the students about responsible behavior. Every student that pledges to drive responsibly had their name entered into a drawing for a $10 gas card. On June 5th, 2005 Active Balanced Community spoke to the graduating class of Monroe High. 169 Seniors signed the pledge! Check out the pictures below.

Once they were all checked in, they had to wait for the buses.






While they waited, Active Balanced Community asked them to take a few minutes to pledge to drive responsibly.


























Sandie explains to the students that driving responsibly includes not talking on your cell phone while you drive, keeping both your hands and your eyes on the road, not playing around with your friends while you drive, and not getting behind the wheel if you are too tired and might fall asleep.
