On Tuesday, the Teens Drive Smart team traveled out to Farmville, Va., for the 26th Annual Youth Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Project (YADAPP) Conference.

The Teens Drive Smart team had quite the adventure traveling down to Farmville, and while it took nearly four hours for us to get there, it was totally worth it because we had an awesome time presenting our program to the students.

Aside from the stellar presentation we gave, we also had a great time with our safety themed modules.

First, yours truly hosted the Teens Drive Smart Quiz Bowl Extravaganza, where the teams of students competed in our quiz game for some fantastic prizes (singing Bridgestone Teens Drive Smart teddy bears). Then, teammate Kyle Butts led the students in our second activity, Teens Drive Smart Silver Screen, where the groups were given a variety of props to make their very own public service announcements using the driving tips found on the Teens Drive Smart website. Go check out their videos at our Teens Drive Smart YouTube channel!

We also gave out $500 in free gas money to some of those lucky few who participated.

All in all, it was a great experience for us, and a great way to spread Teens Drive Smart’s message: staying safe on the road!

Were you in Farmville, Va., this week? Did you head over to our session? Did you win a gas card? Leave some comments and tell us what you think! We really want to know who won all that free gas money!

And don’t forget, if you would like the chance to win a $100 gas card, go take our quiz or sign up for the Teens Drive Smart newsletter. We draw names every month and you’re eligible to win at any time!

Have a fun, safe weekend!
