Remembering ADAM event set Aug. 29

EBENSBURG — Remembering ADAM will host an event to celebrate 23 years of nonprofit service at 7 p.m. Aug. 29 at Amici’s Restaurant in Ebensburg.

Remembering ADAM has provided substance abuse prevention education to schools, communities and families over the years, with a strong emphasis on students in grades six through 12.

Remembering ADAM developed Pledge Together, a program that has reached thousands of students over the years. Each student pledges to be drug-free and the successful results of this program have been proven throughout the years.

The group will host a private viewing of the virtual murder mystery, “Murder at the Pour on Center.”

Remembering ADAM wrote the script and VEM produced the production, which was filmed at the Pour On Center. Local actors volunteered their time to create this product. The murder mystery will be released virtually in the next few weeks.
