Elena Cameron and Madilyn Whitehead acted as Master of Ceremonies for the event. After the singing of the national anthem, Assistant Principal Mr.Kuzyk addressed the gathered parents and family, and DARE Objective RCMP Constable Bob Wright was introduced.
Lewis Anderson, Martyna Lively, and Lindsay Lunsbury present a brief play outlining some of the possible negative consequences of drinking and driving, with Lively as the reporter and Lunsbury and Anderson as the citizens.
Constable Wright then presented certificates and t-shirts to the DARE alumni, assisted by Constable Fitchner.
Special DARE Achievement awards were then given out to:
- Ewen Erickson
- Taylor Deley
- Kyle Speight
- Cassandra Dollman
- Tomas Scherger
- Taylor Smith
- McArthur David
- Cody Dyck
James and Josh Fitchner made a special presentation to Constable Wright, and Carl Tetachuk and Tysen Teneycke made the closing remarks, after which videos produced by students were shown as the crowd mingled and had some cake and refreshments.
Below, a terrific stop-motion lego animation by DARE graduate Cassandra Dollman.
Note: corrected to give the proper credit for the Lego animation.
Dear Pincher Creek Voice, although I would like to travel back in time and be a kid again, I don't feel it right for me to be given credit for the above video. I am Jason Fichtner, father of Josh and James who are graduates of the DARE program. I believe Casandra Dollman created the fine piece of art and should be given credit for her fine work. I thank in advance for the correction. JF.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the correction, and my apologies to Cassandra.
