Drugs heavily affect the future of our children.
I am very interested in the drug problem because of this. It is an international situation. So, drug prevention programs and campaigns need support.


“Say No to Drugs, Say Yes to Life” have had many people sign onto their honor roll. See here Drug Program Honor Roll.


A key to handling the real situation seems to be getting it worked out before it becomes a problem, so drug prevention programs are vital to society.  Here's the Church of Scientology's Drug Prevention Program.

Let's keep our world as clean and beautiful as this beach, with no drugs!

Well finally a post.

Looking around I found an interesting article about the motor vessel "Freewinds" and how last year they hosted over a thousand children via the local education authorities.

What a great idea, letting kids have the opportunity to come aboard and ocean going vessel and experience what being aboard a ship is all about.

The locals were very happy and grateful that the crew of the "Freewinds" took time out to do this.

Here is an articles covering the story:

Freewinds Parade For Bajans

Then there was another article:

Pomp, Pageantry Marks Freewinds Celebrations

"The highlight of the evening was a parade along Spring Garden Highway to the Flour Mill, with school children from about 30 schools across the island, encompassing 1 300 students. The 100 per cent Bajan concert and parade culminated with an interesting daylight fireworks display and float parade just about 5:45 p.m. when the ship, amidst thousands of streamers with support from the Coast Guard, the Cruising Club, the Yacht Club and various fisherman and charter boats sailed out of the Bridgetown Port."

How exciting for the children - it must have been so colorful. I am going to try and find photographs.

Another interesting article also covering the "Freewinds" helping the local community:
