How
Create and produce an original piece of media that is
about some aspect of underage drinking. Your message must be new, unique, and innovative. Be a
pioneer! Be ground-breaking in coming up with a message teens have never heard before! All media
submitted must be original and must be both created and produced by students, not adults.
Why
Use your superhero powers for the good! You can have a positive influence on your school while earning $1200. Why not get paid for being creative and for challenging teen drinking?
