Yesterday, Friday, April 25, the SADD Act Out Loud officers, Ashley, Adrienne, Dahlia and myself along with our sponsor Ms. Dallas adventured out and spent the field trip day promoting our campaign. First we gathered our belongings from school, and visited the Coral Springs Police Department. After signing in, we met with Serg. Bruce Kolowski who led us upstairs to the third floor and we followed him into a police classroom where meetings are held. We introduced ourselves to the group of Resource Officers and other officials, and informed them of our project. After our introduction we asked informative interview questions based on Teen Safety. Each gave a very well informed response. We concluded the event there with asking the officers to sign pledge cards which will "inspire the teens of today to be safe drivers of tomorrow" and also giving them a thank you basket for their effort to talk to us and keeping teens safe on the road. After the five of us went out for a very nice lunch, and then went to our next stop. Located just beyond the "CORAL SPRINGS" welcoming sign was a "Drive Safely" sign where a victim had past away due to a auto mobile collision. We put flowers, balloons, and stuffed animals there to show SADD's respect and mourning of the passing. With little time to spare we were on our way to North Broward Hospital where we were soon due to attend a meeting. As we arrived on time, Sharon Holmes, Trauma Director of North Broward Medical Center, led us from the main welcome hall, we were taken VIP to a "classroom" that was set very welcoming to our attendance. We were given various pamphlets regarding teen safety behind the wheel and trauma resulting pamphlets. We were also given DVD's about being behind the wheel, and many important information. As we sat down a TV was playing a HBO recorded segment about teen trauma effecting after having a cause of a auto mobile collision. The video was very deep feeling, which made me think that EVERY school. middle and high, should show this video to have students truly aware that being behind the wheel of a car is very serious and should not be taken for granted. After the 6 trauma staff members, including Ms. Holmes arrived to be interviewed by us, we were able to really get valuable information from each person. We were then taken on a tour of a trauma exam room that was not currently being used, and also we were able to check out the paramedics vehicle. WHAT A DAY, so many great things did we learn, and we were able to get our whole experience recorded, in hope to have students not only in our school but as many schools in the county see the experience we had in hope they can take advantage and choose the right path of being safe while driving.

Well that's all for now,

Good day everyone,

It has been a while since I shared my thought with the world. I am a senior at CORAL SPRINGS CHARTER, as the year draw near to prom so many thought are running though my head. Prom time has been proven to have the most fatal car crashs. I want to let everyone know that this is a night that so many of us have been waited for our whole life, 50 years from now tell our grandchildren that will be going to prom all about that magical night for us.So our SADD body is putting on a GHOST OUT..... That is a program given to the juniors and seniors of our school. It inform the students what a magical night can become if they decide to take that wrong lane to drink and do drugs then go behind the wheel of a car. Our goal is to show the students this isn't a joke when it come to their and other people fate.

An article posted in our school newspaper, Charter Chapters! It's so exciting that our school gets a chance to read about our team at their own convinience. :] Thank-you to Ashley Wright who wrote the awesome article and thank-you to the newspaper staff who gave us the spot in the paper. The team appreciates the work put in by them.

In other exciting news, we're planning on visiting a local police station and hospital to talk with the staff. It will surely be interesting to hear the opinions and views of those who were not in the accident but were there to help those who were in it. Most people hear from the person in the accident about how they felt, but it will be a new experience for everyone to hear from police and hospital workers who help to save lives from severe crashes caused by reckless teen driving. A car crash impacts everyone in many different ways and we are going out and seeing a new point of view.

Stay safe and live your life,

Ashley :]

Way to Go Team!

As affrimed by Peter Drucker, "The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say "I." And that's not because they have trained themselves not to say "I." They don't think "I." They think "we"; they think "team." They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don't sidestep it, but "we" gets the credit. This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done."
