“As someone who has lost a dear friend due to drunk driving, this demonstration hit very close to home,: said Cross Plains Mayor Marlene Graves, who attended the event. “I hope that it helped put into perspective for the students that one decision can be life-altering and can be taken away in an instant. My hope is the demonstration reached the students and the next time they make the right choice if in such a situation. I want to thank Tommy Jackson and his crew for their dedication to keeping the community safe.”
