EXPLANATION:  A request was received from Adriana Quartarolli, coordinator of the Young Marines of the Palm Beaches, advising us about Red Ribbon Week, a nationally-recognized illicit drug awareness event, and that the Young Marines of the Palm Beaches was looking for Wellington to issue a proclamation recognizing it.   The mission of the Young Marine program is to develop good citizenship and promote a healthy, drug-free lifestyle in our youth as well as promoting drug awareness and education. Wellington would like to support this effort by proclaiming October 23-31, 2016, as Red Ribbon Week in the Village of Wellington.
