Explanation in detail of Moose KidsTalk
program. This Program started in 1986. The Moose was asked by President Ronald
Reagan to get involved in the War on Drug. Our First Lady Nancy Reagan started
the “Say No to Drug” program. The Moose decided we needed to talk to 4 to 9 years old to obtain the best results in
this program.
Challenge the students to present a minimum of three
KidsTalks. These talks need to be completed by February 28th, 2012. You need to mail them to Linda or I to have
them judged by some of your peers at a high school that not in program.
