🎀 Red Ribbon Week 2025 🎀
Northpointe Council is proud to continue our tradition of celebrating Red Ribbon Week by hosting a spirit week all week long! 🧩💪

Red Ribbon Week began in 1985 after the tragic loss of DEA Special Agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena, who was killed while fighting drug trafficking. Communities across the nation started wearing red ribbons to honor his memory and raise awareness about living drug-free. Since then, RRW has become the largest drug prevention campaign in the country, reminding everyone—especially youth—that every healthy choice is a piece of the puzzle for a bright future.

This year’s theme, “Life Is a Puzzle. Solve It Drug Free.”, perfectly reflects why we participate: by encouraging kids and families to make positive choices, we help build strong, resilient communities. ❤️
