Youth Vs Drugs, Guns & Gangs 6

Recently, we had our 6th Youth Vs Drugs, Guns & Gangs a game to raise awareness to the ills plaguing our communities. We had a lot of community support. It was over 20 vendors and plenty of activities for the whole family. The speakers did a great job of speaking life into our youth they were Liddian Street, Will Turner, Aleechea Pitts, Sean Thom and Police Chief Jody Farabella who also threw out the first pass.

The game was Millville Team Blue (Positive Vibes) Coach JT vs Vineland Team Red (Destined For Greatness) Coach Darrell Chestnut Vineland won 21-14

Next year game is all ready being planned. It will be played in Vineland. There will be a county wide effort next year to add Bridgeton and Cumberland to the event by making it a three week tournament with the championship game being the event itself.
