Every year Supporting Addiction Free Environments sponsors a VIRTUAL Red Ribbon Week Poster Contest. Red Ribbon Week is October 23 – 31, 2024.  The contest is designed to give students an opportunity to show their support for “Staying Drug Free” and “Saying No to Drugs”. This is a county-wide effort and finalists will be chosen by the general public. The grand prize winner of the Poster Contest will receive an amazing prize worth over $250.00 and have their submission displayed on a billboard in Lake County. Nine other winners will be chosen as well. There will be 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners for grades K-5, 6-8, and 9-12 who will also receive a wonderful prize.
