In an effort to keep students safe and the town intact, the resort city's officials are reaching out to parents and teens about the benefits of good, clean fun and the consequences of getting caught with drugs or alcohol. Senior Week typically falls around the first week of June. "We do this to try to address problems before they happen," said Pfc. Howard Caplan. About 16 years ago, the "Play It Safe" program was created to provide alcohol- and drug-free activities, such as volleyball games and dances, for teens throughout June.
