37 Years of DARE and DARE Graduations in Hamilton County Unit #10 Schools! On Wednesday and Thursday this week we were able to gather and celebrate the completion of another round of DARE Graduates. Officer Robert Crow has spent the last 10 weeks with 6th graders in Hamilton County Schools teaching about Drugs, Alcohol, and Violence and ways to lead a positive life. Each year one student from each classroom is selected to read an essay that they have written, and they were very impressive! Congratulations to all the DARE Graduates and Congratulations to Robert Crow on 37 Years!

We would also like to give a special thank-you to the McLeansboro Odd Fellows and Sam Wilson for their continued support of the DARE program. The Odd Fellows provide all the T-Shirts worn by all the graduates at no cost!
