National Eat with Your Family Day event follows Second Sunday Observance will follow Second Sunday event at 5:00pmCT at Adair County Elementary School. Second Sunday 2:00pm-5pmCT. By J.D. Zornes National Eat with Your Family Day, sponsored by The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University (CASA), is observed each year to remind parents of the importance of spending time with their children to keep them substance free. We are celebrating Eat with Your Family Day locally at Adair County Elementary School immediately after the "Second Sunday - Come Play in the Street" event. The inflatable bounce house and slide will be set up by 3:00 in the blacktop area by the Family Resource Center and cafeteria. We'll be grilling hot dogs served with chips and drinks at 5:00 p.m. for parents to 'eat with their children.' According to CASA, kids who eat diner with their families, five to seven times per week, are more likely to make better grades and to confide in their parents. They are also at seventy percent lower risk for substance abuse; half as likely to try cigarettes or marijuana; one third less likely to try alcohol and half as likely to get drunk monthly. For more information on the benefits of eating with your family, just go to http://casafamilyday.org/familyday/ . Eat with Your Family Day is sponsored locally by A.C.T.I.O.N. Generation. A.C.T.I.O.N. Generation is an acronym for Adair Countians Together Influencing Our Next Generation...To Be Substance Free and is the combined effort of community and school programs and activities with the goal of educating our community about substance abuse issues; providing prevention activities and events that promote substance abuse awareness; and joint agency partnerships to help fight substance abuse in our community.
