D.A.R.E. CYCLIST ARRIVES IN OLDS

Nychole Bereznicki Stan Wawzonek, who is cycling across Canada to raise 
awareness for the Drug Abuse Resistance Program Education (D.A.R.E.) 
programs stopped in Olds on Thursday July 18th to talk to D.A.R.E. officers 
before he cycled onto Calgary.

Wawzonek, a 60-year-old grandfather from Brantford Ont, started his journey 
in St. John Newfoundland on April 30th with one goal in mind, to increase 
awareness for a program he believes is crucial for the youth in Canada. 
iKids are our future,i said Wawzonek.

The D.A.R.E. program will be up and running in Olds this fall. The program 
is taught over a 17 week period to grade six students who have undertaken 
special training.
