Dinner, auction to benefit Play It Safe
(Oct. 7, 2011) The Ocean City Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention Committee, Inc. will again present “Magnifico!” an Italian feast buffet and silent auction to benefit the Play It Safe 2012 project, on Monday from 4-7 p.m. at Hall’s Restaurant on 60th Street.Play It Safe provides high school graduates with organized alcohol- and drugfree activities during the first three weeks of June, all at no cost to the visiting teens. The project, coordinated by the Worcester County Health Department and the Ocean City Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention Committee, with support from the town of Ocean City and local businesses and organizations, was started as an effort to prevent the abuse of alcohol and drugs by high school-aged visitors to the resort. It aims to encourage recent high school graduates to make informed, healthy choices while having responsible fun without the use of drugs and alcohol.
The annual Italian feast buffet at Hall’s Restaurant is one of Play It Safe’s major fundraisers. The cost is $12 for adults and $5 for children ages 4-9. Children 4 and younger eat free. Tickets will be available at the door.
