Local 743 Pitches In to Prevent Drug Abuse

The Drug Awareness Resistance Education (DARE) program is focused on educating kids about the perils of using drugs. First, though, you have to get their attention. Windsor Locks, CT police
officer Joe Oliveria found a solution. He bought a 1996 Chevy Camaro with his own money and began to restore it. That’s when Local Lodge 743 stepped in. They donated $2,000 to help with the restoration costs. The car is now the centerpiece of many school and community functions—and sends a firm message to kids about drugs.
