Schools observe Red Ribbon Week During Oct. 23 through 31, TriCounty Health Department encourages en-courages Uintah Basin residents to demonstrate their commitment to drug free lifestyles by "wearing red" and encourages youth and adults to live healthy -lives and avoid substance abuse, including nicotine in tobacco. The red ribbon celebration originated origi-nated following the murder of US Drug Enforcement Administration Agent Enrique Camarena by drug traffickers in February, 1985. The red ribbon became a symbol individuals indi-viduals and communities could use to protest the use of drugs and to promote intolerance for the violence vio-lence and destruction caused by alcohol al-cohol and other drugs. Alcohol, tobacco to-bacco and other drug problems cost Utah Citizens over fourteen billion dollars each year in lost work, health care and other related costs. To help celebrate Red Ribbon Week, TriCounty Health Department will be treating children chil-dren and youth with a Red Ribbon sticker on Thursday and Friday. Drop by the clinic in Vernal, Roosevelt and Duchesne to get a Red Ribbon. As part of the celebration, celebra-tion, TriCounty Health Department School Health Nurses will also be sponsoring the third annual Truth from Youth Anti-Tobacco Advertising Contest in Uintah, Duchesne and Daggett schools. This contest involves youth in creating cre-ating anti-tobacco TV andor radio ads. Last year's state wide winners included four Uintah High School students and one Duchesne Middle School student and brought home second place, $100; third place, $50 and three honorable mentions.

The great thing about the contest is that youth have the opportunity to learn about the dangers of smoking smok-ing and smokeless tobacco and then interpret what they've learned -by creating radio and TV commercials for their peers. Youth who participate partici-pate can write, draw, record or shoot the commercials on video. Cash prizes and recognition in elementary, ele-mentary, middle and high schoo' categories will be awarded again this year. The top winners in both radio and TV categories will also help produce and star in their own ads on radio and television, to air in May 2000. Youth who volunteer as ambassadors to help promote the contests in their schools can qualify to receive incentives and a $500 scholarship plus a personal letter of recommendation from the State Department of Health. One ambassador ambas-sador will be chosen to be the Utah Representative for the National Youth Advocate of the Year Award. Contest information packets are available to teacher and youth leaders. lead-ers. The packets contain contests posters, entry forms, rules and other helpful information. Entries are due Feb. 29, 2000 with an awards ceremony cere-mony in April. TriCounty Health Department can provide a contest packet and school health nurses will help plan activities for the school, classroom or youth group.
