The annual Government of Ridgefield Against Drunk Driving Flag Raising Ceremony has been held in front of town hall. This was the 32nd year of the program. G.R.A.D.D. is a cooperative effort between the police department, students, faculty, town government and citizens to ensure a safe and sober graduation period. Town officials say unfortunately this celebration often involves alcohol and/or drugs. Prior to the ceremony police officers present an anti-drinking & driving presentation at a school assembly to reinforce the dangers of drunk driving.
