Exciting, exciting, NEWS!


My calendar has been filled with many exciting dates in July! I am so excited to share the news with you about my opportunities and experiences that I will be having the next three weeks!

This Tuesday I will be traveling to Chicago with a few Northern Lights Advisory Board Members from Northern Lights SADD. I will be attending a leadership camp there entitled LifeRide. LifeRide was established by national youth speker Eddie Slowikowsi. I had the joy of hearing Eddie speak at the Northern Lights SADD Conference this past March. I will be in Chicago at Camp Algonquin for one week learning and discovering even more of my leaderships skills and potential. I am ecstatic for the great week ahead of me.

After I get back from Chicago I will be resting for just a few days and then I will be heading on a week long journey with Northern Lights SADD as we travel to nine different states. Our journey is all about the message that I have been trying to reach teens with all year. Anti-Tobacco and Prevention. I was asked to come along on this trip just a few short weeks ago and have been busy along with eight others getting every detail in place.

The whole goal of the Pack It Up Road Trip is to help others understand how much money tobacco users spend on the drug and how their money can be used differently by preventing the use of tobacco among teens and adults. The entire trip will be documented through video and the media. After we get back we will start working on this video that will one day be in your hands.

I would love for you to check out the website for Pack It Up. It will give you itinerary and will give you updates while the trip is taking place. Copy and past the URL and be invited to all the details!

I am so overwhelmed with great joy for this trip. I am so excited to go outside the tri-state area and reach MORE people. I am so thankful for the opportunities that I have had and the continuation of being a part of the fight against tobacco.

God bless,
Paige
