All participants received a note book to start their own garden journals. After a demonstration of proper planting techniques by OSU Master Gardener Edith McBean, volunteers from the audience created their own bas kets. All attendees were eligible to win baskets. The lucky winners were Danica Green who won the hanging pocket basket, Alberta Comedonn who won the hanging wooden basket, and Guy Chittenden who won the large container.

Mothers Against Drunk Driving developed the program for a broad audience and tailored it to the tribes. , "Underage drinking perme ates all races and ethnicities; its tragedies are felt in every com munity across the country," said Wendy Hamilton, MADD na tional president. "We want to ensure all students can relate to the lessons so they can make smart, healthy decisions about alcohol" On Thursday, a sacred drum beat echoed at South Sioux City's Marina Inn as about 40 youths were recognized for pledging to abstain from alco hol and to become role models to younger children and com munity leaders on the reserva tions. In the towns of Winnebago, Walthill, Macy and Santee, pro gram coordinators will work beginning this fall with the stu dents to implement the program in the schools and in the com munities. MADD used a grant from the Department of Health and Human Services, Center for Substance Abuse Prevention to adapt the curriculum, and re ceived help from the Red Road Project for Native American Youth Leadership. The Red Road Project was created from a joint grant out of the U.S. Department of Edu cation and the Department of Health and Human Services, Center for Substance Abuse Prevention. The Red Road Project works with teenagers, children and leaders of the reservation com munities to help prevent alco hol abuse. Please support the businesses jou see in the Spiljay Tymoo.
