Edgemont Elementary School Red Ribbon Week Assembly





















Aunt Ali asked Stephanie to put together an assembly with BYU athletes for Red Ribbon Week at our Elementary School. It is a week that kids focus on being drug and violence free. She got some of her friends from the Cross Country and Track team at BYU and they did some fun activities. They had kids put on goggles that made them see as if they had alcohol in their system. It was great, they walked like they were drunk and the kids got the idea of how it would make you feel differently. Then they told some stories and did an activity that shows what happens to your lungs if you smoke and how much harder it is to breath. It was a great experience for Stephanie to organize and plan. It was fun for her to be there with her cousins who went to school there. The kids wanted pictures after with her and her friends like they were celebrities. It was neat!
