Viewfinder: Beginning of D.A.R.E. Games

Welcome to View Finder. Each week we'll post a photo gallery that takes a look at the community through the camera lens. This week, we have images from the start of the D.A.R.E. Games on Monday and all the fanfare that came with it.

The 9th annual D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) Games officially started Monday night full house at Fort Lee High School.

All four elementary schools are invited to the event that showcases sixth grade basketball teams of boys and girls for ultimate bragging rights at the lunch table the next day.

But the event is so much more than a basketball contest. As the pictures show. there is also sign-making, song singing and mascot dancing to captivate the Fort Lee spectators.
