ADAPT Needs Community Support to Help Reduce Unnecessary Injury and Loss of Life this Prom Season


The 27th Annual Hoosick Falls Central School (HFCS) substance-free after-prom celebration will take place on May 21-22, 2011, following the 2011 prom. The after-prom event is organized by Class of 2012 parents/guardians and is fully supported by local businesses, organizations, neighbors, and friends.


Prom and graduation season - April, May, and June - is when a higher percentage of youth under the age of 21 are killed in alcohol- and drug-related accidents (according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). With monetary donations and contributions of supplies for fundraising events and gifts to be used for prizes from people and organizations in the community, ADAPT will be able to continue the HFCS tradition of providing prom goers with a safe and fun-filled celebration - and help reduce unnecessary injury and loss of life!


ADAPT thanks community members and organizations for considering a contribution by March 18, 2011. Questions about donations of prizes and supplies can be directed to Co-Chairs Cheryl Downing (518-686-4664) and Maggie Middleton (518-686-1599) or by emailing hfcs.adapt@gmail.com; monetary donations, payable to ADAPT, can be sent c/o Laurie Gormley, Treasurer, 4 Estabrook Avenue, Hoosick Falls, NY 12090.


Together � as a community � we should all strive to provide substance-free, memorable experiences for our youth!
