Acclaimed Youth Speaker Uses Humor To Reach Students About Decisions, Drugs
Saying no to drugs is not a laughing matter. But Kevin Wanzer thinks that it is...in his own unique way. Kevin has made a lasting impact on our young people with a presentation unlike any you have ever seen, and Huntley is proud to welcome him.
Kevin Wanzer speaks to students about decision¬ making and drugs. In most schools, the type of presentation would not be too popular with the student body. But, when Kevin talks, students listen. Why? Because, through the magical vehicle of laughter, Kevin has adapted and develq^ed a presentation in which students of all ages can relate. "Kids using drugs is not a laughing matter," claims the 26-year-
old humorist and motivator. "The bottom line is you have to understand how young people feel. I simply discuss simple drug information, prevention skills and self- esteem in an up-beat way." Kevin's age, energy, and charisma have a lot to to with the fact that he is one of the most effective speakers for young people today. For over ten years, Kevin has presented to over one million young people, educators and parents in the United States, Canada, Europe and was one of the first motivational speakers to reach students and adults in China. He has been recognized by the White House, along with a variety
of other national drug-free and educational organizations for his public service and has worked with the NPl., the NBA, and Major League Baseball, in conjunction with
their drug-free efforts. He has appeared on a number of national television and radio shows.
Kevin will be presenting assemblies to the grade school and high school on December 1st. There will be a special (wogram for parents and students in the evening, in the high school cafeteria, at 7pm. Discussion groups will then be formed for students in grades 5 & 6, grades 7 & 8, and for high schoolers. All students and their families are welcome to come.
