Against Impaired Driv ing Here in Georgetown the new name is Rebels Against prinking and Driving The other schools involved who took part in this sharing of ideas at the Georgetown high school were Centennial Public School Bishop Reding Acton and Stewarttown At the beginning of the day there were words of welcome from the Georgetown high school teachers Mavis Mascola and Sam Assad Then the students were invited to take part in the Cocktail party without the cocktails There were various fruit juices and muffins cookies and tea biscuits available The students broke for lunch at noon but resumed the workshop at 1 pm to listen to Constable Scott Mason of the Regional Police Force speak about the legal aspect of drinking and driving He also spoke about real life ex- he has had as a policeman in situations which in volved the problem of drunk drivers North Walt Elliot and Betty Moore superintendent for the board were also pre sent for part of the workshop of concerned students Each student was given a folder containing informative articles written about the subject in cluding facts about drinking and driving which stated that for the first offence of impaired driving the driver could receive up to six months in prison or his or her licence could be revoked for up to three years During the workshop ideas were discussed as to how to make drink ing and driving less of a problem Georgetown high school wants to start up a taxi service for members of the school Under the taxi service system students after paying a small fee would be able to call a taxi to come and pick them up wherever they may be and drive them home would pay for the ride and the student would then pay back the school Everyone who attended the workshop thought that this was an excellent idea With any luck it will start soon into the next school year Georgetown high school OSAID members would prefer to do more practical work than educational for the town It is a good possibility that there will be an workshop every year from now on Everyone is already looking forward to getting together and share ideas Mrs said OFF ALL IN STOCK Georgetown Hobby Joy Fashions For The Young At Heart 115 MAM ST
