San Dieguito Students to Hold Teen Driving Fair

The Teen Driving Safety Fair, sponsored by the San Dieguito Academy Foundation and the San Dieguito Alliance for Drug Free Youth and put on by the Teen Driving Safety 5k Team, will be held on May 28th, 2013 at 3:30 after school at San Dieguito Academy.

Since 2010, the Teen Driving Safety 5k Team comprised of SDUHSD students, has put on annual events to help raise awareness of the possible dangers of inexperienced and/or distracted teen driving. It has raised over $5000 for the cause and hopefully changed the habits of some potentially distracted young drivers. This annual event has been a 5k run/walk at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas followed by a booth fair with various organizations represented. However, this year, Moonlight Beach is under construction so the event venue and format has been changed.

Speakers from several public agencies and individuals who have been impacted by tragic accidents resulting from irresponsible driving will be featured again this year. It is to be held as a fair with speakers, booths, food and festivities. All SDUHSD and EUSD families are welcome to attend; the event is free and open to the public. There will be music and free food for those who stay through the speakers.
