Local group requests city donations for alcohol- and drug-free graduation-after party
Summary
Paige, representing Bonneville, asked the council for donations to fund a supervised, substance-free post-graduation event in May; council members expressed support and agreed to accept a donation at the next meeting.
Paige (speaker 8), representing Bonneville, asked the council for donations to support a drug- and alcohol-free "after graduation" party for seniors, saying the event will be held at a local venue in May and that organizers hope for community contributions to cover costs.
"We're gonna be hosting our senior after graduation party...we're here representing Bonneville," Paige said, asking the council to consider a donation and describing the event as a safe alternative for graduates. The chair and council members said they traditionally support the event and would plan a contribution; the chair suggested Paige deliver any donation paperwork or a check at the next council meeting for processing.
Why it matters: The council's contributions support a community-run effort to provide a supervised social option for teens after graduation, a recurring local civic contribution.
