Today in the Lion's Den, they offered free healthy snacks, including raisins, pretzels, and chocolate chips. Counselors also gave tips for eating healthy. Organizers say they're excited for the plans in the week ahead.

"We'll be in the Lion's Den everyday with brochures with health information. Today, we're doing 'Make A Healthy Snack.' Tomorrow we have a Spa Treatment Day scheduled, and the rest of the week we'll be out here with giveaways," said Sarah Nelderberg, Counselor and Academic Advisor.

This is a new program meant to do one thing: get all drivers in the four state area to pledge to never text while driving.

Help us put the brakes on texting and driving. Click below and sign the pledge, visit any of our sponsors to pick up your thumb band, and then follow through on your word. We're all counting on you.
