Our new student-produced PSA is set to air on Buckeye!  Special thanks to our sponsors: ProMedica, Buckeye CableSystem, Allied Media, and  Ad Club of Toledo, for their support of this effort.  Phil Mariasy of Allied Media did a great job of bringing the students’ ideas to life on film.

The winners of the contest included Clay High School students Molly Kissling, Kelli Patay, and Adam Mihalko.  These three chose to focus on the dangerous consequences of underage drinking in their PSA entitled “Consider This.”  The PSAs will air on Buckeye on E!, Comedy Central, BCSN and ABC Family over the next month.

Congrats to the PSA winners!  They did a fabulous job.

The Rock Band Rock Off/Dodge Ball Knock Off was a HUGE hit!  On Saturday, April 25th, our Youth Board, led by our intrepid Youth Coordinator Heather Umbaugh, led almost 200 middle school youth in a Rock Band showdown, and a Dodge Ball Tournament!  This marked the end of their Semester of Service with a focus on mentoring.

Everyone had a GREAT time, and the competition was fierce!  A special thanks to all our volunteers who baked, bought, and brought some snacks for the kids, and to Heather and the Youth Board for coordinating such an awesome event.  Also, thanks to Fassett Middle School for hosting the event!
