Insurer gives grant to SADD group

By MARK SCHAAF

Posted: Jan. 8, 2010

The Oak Creek High School chapter of Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) has received a $2,000 grant from the Erie Insurance Company.

The money will be used to promote the Lookin' Out program, which is geared toward helping students realize the importance of safe driving.

"With all the distractions on the road today, this is a very important program, which the students are very excited to promote," said Julie Shandley, the group's adviser.
