Doing something about underage drinking

Katelyne Frink (L) and Kayle Light (R), an incoming Cazenovia High School junior, are making a video about underage drinking in their community through Bridges Madison County Council on Alcoholism and Substance Abuse.

Katelyne Frink: You don't need to drink to have fun, all you have to do is hang out with people with whom you can be yourself and people who like you for who you are.

Kayle Light : In our society more and more teens are turning to alcohol at a younger age. Drinking illegally has become a trend not only in my high school, but across the nation... I am very concerned with the issue of underage drinking because sooner or later someone I know is going to be hurt by drinking.
