Past Events

Red Ribbon Week's ("Too Cool To Do Drugs")
third year celebration was held on October 28, 1998 at Kezar Stadium. Over 3,000 youth from middle schools in San Francisco were in attendance. Each young person made a pledge to resist from peer pressure to use drugs. The San Francisco Police Department in collaboration with the San Francisco Unified School District played an active role in helping to make his event possible. Officer Billy Ray Smith of the S. F. Striders Youth Program, led the pledge. The S. F. Strider's motto is, "to promote fitness instead of drugs". Many young people are drawn to his program whose initials stand for "Scholastics First!". Striders stands for Striving Towards Responsible Individual Development Education Respect and Self-esteem". The Strider's program affords youth opportunities for positive interactions with law enforcement officers, adults and their peers while providing a safe environment for your child to travel and compete in athletics across the United States.

By the way, parents, if you are interested in an educational physical fitness training program (track & field) for your child contact Officer Billy Ray Smith at (415) 576-5041 (pager) or on the internet at the following address: y.williams@attbi.com
