ERADICATION OF DRUGS

Dear Editor,

I want to applaud the efforts of the Sneads Ferry Citizens in Action
(SFCIA) group. The eradication of drugs and drug related activity from
our community and particularly our schools is not only a noble goal,
it is one that is critical to the area's quality of life and business
climate, and one that this group is completely dedicated to.

The establishment of a toll-free telephone number and flyers has
already been met with success, which says that there are a lot of eyes
and ears in the community that also care about this issue. And, the
fact that they are stepping up to the plate to help says that they are
equally dedicated and lends credence to the SFCIA group's message that
"time is up for drug dealers in the area."

I am a proud member of the Sneads Ferry Rotary Club. Recently the
Sneads Ferry Rotary Club joined a program called Rotarians Against
Drugs (RAD), which has a global reach.

Combined, RAD and SFCIA are a powerful combination that will empower
the community to be the catalyst for changing what is now considered
by many to be a conducive climate for drug related activity into a
what will become known by all to be a zero drug tolerance climate.

And that is good for our citizens, our schools, and business.

Now, eradication of drugs and zero tolerance may like a lofty goal to
some or too strong to others. And, there are times that I would agree.
But this isn't one of those times.

Margaret Meade once said "Never doubt that a small group of dedicated
people can change the world. Indeed it is the only things that ever
has."

SFCIA is comprised of some of the most dedicated and determined people
I've come across who know what it takes to get the job done and the
stamina and willingness to see it through.
