Do you know that the best way to protect your child from internet predators is to KEEP the computer instead of taking it away from them?


Teens:

Did you know that there really are people out there that surf sites like MySpace and find all sorts of information on you, even if you just post a picture and no info?


Do you know how to talk to your parents about bullying?


Do you know what to do if a peer tries to bully you on IM or MySpace?

***On Underage Drinking, Cazenovia Town Hall Meeting- April 18th 2007***


As a result of the Town Hall Meeting in Cazenovia that addressed underage drinking, Project Cafe recently held the Solstice, a concert in the park that was alcohol-free. This was in response to the community's need for more fun, alcohol-free events as was discussed at the Town Hall Meeting.
