Spring Hill Elementary School in Fayetteville has scheduled a series of events and activities to coincide with Red Ribbon Week, Oct. 26-30. During that week, the students will wear red ribbons to remind themselves to be drug-free and parents are encouraged to tie a red ribbon to the car antenna to promote Red Ribbon Week.

To kick things off the week before, there will be an assembly Oct. 21 called "Diamondback Perfection on Wheels." This stunt show is conducted by two of the nation's top bicycle riders, who in a program geared to kids will explain that making a choice to be drug-free forever, along with leading a healthy life-style, will allow them to accomplish anything.

The schedule for Red Ribbon Week at Springhill Elementary is as follows:

G Oct. 26 Wear Red Day. Everyone wears as much red as possible to show support of Red Ribbon Week.

G Oct. 27 Team Spirit Day. Wear favorite uniform (baseball, cheerleading, soccer, etc.) or shirt representing a favorite college or pro team.

G Oct. 28 Wacky Hat Day. See who can wear the wackiest hat.

G Oct. 29 Spring Hill Day. Show support for Spring Hill and Red Ribbon Week by wearing Spring Hill clothing.
