April 20 is a day commonly associated with illegal marijuana use across the county. The Mesa

Prevention Alliance is putting a positive twist on combating this mixed message by offering two

fun events for youth. Both events are scheduled to be held on 4/20 and starting at 4:20 p.m.

As part of the national movement that encourage youth to "Live ABOVE the Influence" of drugs

and alcohol, the Mesa Prevention Alliance will offer these events in Mesa to offer healthy

alternatives and local resources for youth. Free food, music, raffle prizes, and memberships to

youth programs. Live music, a rock climbing wall and video game center. Youth under 18 who

participate in the rock climbing only need $1 to participate along with a waiver signed by an

adult. These forms are accessible online to download and print. For more information call Marc

Beasley at (480) f644-4803.
