“Party Your Life Away” A Mannequin Challenge
5C, with the help of all the partners below, created a message to
the community to remember how important decisions can be
when it comes to alcohol, parties, and driving. If you haven’t seen
the video, you can find it on 5C’s YouTube Channel or by clicking
HERE.
Thanks to the wonderful world of social media, this message
made the rounds across the country – hitting major news stations
locally and numerous groups across the nation that plan to play
the message to students at driver’s education and health classes.
To date, we have
Over 950,000 Views
Let’s see if we can hit 1 million!
Once again, a huge shout out to all the volunteers that
put hours of work into making this video possible. We
couldn’t have done it without you!
