Red Ribbon Week October 21st—27th 2007
October 21 - 27, 2007 - Red Ribbon Week - National Red Ribbon week serves as a
tribute to
Special Agent Camarena, who was kidnapped and brutally tortured and
murdered by drug traffickers in Mexico. This tragic event produced an immediate
outpouring of grief, but over time has generated a sense of hope across America.
That hope is being kept alive through the hard work of thousands of Americans
who participate in Red Ribbon events during the last full week in October. This
tradition is stronger than ever today, as an increasing number of Americans are
saying “yes” to a drug-free life.
