MOSI is celebrating Red Ribbon Week
this Wednesday, Oct. 23 to Oct 31. Join MOSI in saying no to drugs and receive
discounts to the museum in the process. Anyone who signs a pledge to abstain
from illegal use of drugs in honor of Red Ribbon Week receives $5 off MOSI
general admission.
Drug abuse is a serious issue
amongst teens and adults today. All drugs can be harmful, even prescription
drugs when they are abused. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse,
young adults are the biggest abusers of prescription pain relievers, ADHD
stimulants, and anti-anxiety drugs. The best way to stop children and teens
from going down this path is to educate them, and MOSI is doing just that.
MOSI is also hosting a safety
disposal site for prescription drugs. The DEA’s National Prescription Drug
Take-Back Initiative is Saturday, Oct. 26 from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. People in the
community can safely dispose of their unused, unnecessary or expired
prescription medication. There are 4 sites total, with MOSI being one of them.
Be sure to check out MOSI on
Facebook, sign the pledge to say no to drugs and receive a $5 off general
admission coupon. Excludes special engagement films, events and Sky Trail Ropes
Course and Zip Line. Must present physical pledge or the shared pledge on
Facebook at the time of purchase. Other restrictions may apply.
