Pullayouee (U-Turn)
is our new campaign movement targeting 16-20
year olds. Since our target audience
has a wide variety of tastes, a short
attention span and a keen sense of manufactured
messages and posters, U-Turn will deliver its
message using non-traditional media and
methods.
Because of the technology-savvy nature of our
target audience and the unique perspective that
they have on the world, U-Turn will live primarily
on the Web.
We need YOU and YOUR SADD STUDENTS to
serve as ambassadors of this program.
Getting the word out to as many peers as
possible to visit (and re-visit) the website,
attend events, etc.
We'll be contacting you late summer/early
fall with details on how you can help.
This project made possible by a
grant awarded to the Pennsylvania DUI Association
from the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and
Delinquency.
Many thanks to Cimbrian, the
Lancaster-based marketing agency we partnered with
to develop this
campaign. | |

Dear SADD
Advisors,
There is so much new and
exciting activity coming out of our office,
and we can't wait to share it all with
you.
The most important
development is our new underage
drinking/underage DUI campaign. If you
didn't get a chance to see the webinar about
this, please visit and view the details (link in
left column). We are very excited about
this campaign, and really want to hear your
feedback and suggestions, and those of your
students, as well. Read more about
Pullayouee.com in the "Featured Article" in the
left column.
Thank you for your hard work
throughout this school year. Enjoy your
summer, and come back refreshed and ready to
Pull-A-Youee!
Sincerely,
Felicity DeBacco-Erni

PA SADD Student of the Year
Stacey
Geyer
Stacey Geyer of Halifax,
PA has been named PA SADD Student of the Year.
She's also been appointed to serve on the
SADD National Student Leadership Council for the
2009-10 school year. It is notable that
not every SADD Student of the Year is named to
the Council -- that's a particularly high
honor. Stacey will join 11 other Council
members from other states who will represent the
hundreds of thousands of SADD students
throughout the United States.
Stacey is
currently vice-preseident of her SADD chapter
"Stand Tall" at Halifax Area High
School in Dauphin County, and has been a
dedicated SADD student for three years.
She has presented various workshops at the PA
SADD Conference and assisted with coordinating
the Stylish Promises fashion show. In
addition, Stacey is involved in the student
council, band and chorus, and is a member of the
National Honor Society.
Stacey
has been an exceptional SADD leader in
Pennsylvania, working tirelessly to ensure that
teens are aware of the perils of underage
drinking and other drug use. We are
confident that she will thrive as an educator
and an important advocate for teens
nationwide. CONGRATULATIONS
STACEY!!!

legislation and policy affecting underage
drinking at the Capitol Rotunda in
2007. Looking on (at left) is

CAST
YOUR VOTE
The York City Police Department (York County) has
launched a new underage drinking/underage DUI
initiative entitled "Just One," and is asking the public
to help choose winning videos and public service
announcements.
Students from six York County high schools, most
involved in either their school's SADD chapter or a similar
organization, took part in the contest by creating either a
30-second radio spot, a 30-second video or a 5-minute
video.
You have a great opportunity
to take part in the final decision by casting your vote
in all three categories.
Voting ends May
11.
If you allow your
students to vote, please stress to them the
seriousness of this decision-making process as they will
be participating in developing a campaign that has the
potential to save lives.
