SALT LAKE CITY (May 4, 2015) - On Monday, May 11, the Salt Lake Bees and the Utah State Office of Education will host more than 13,000 students at the Prevention Dimensions Kids Day, with free admission courtesy of Med One Capital. The Bees vs. Reno Aces game has a special start time of 10:35 a.m. at Smith's Ballpark.

This is the 13th edition of the Prevention Dimensions Kids Day. The fifth and sixth grade students in attendance will be treated to an opening ceremony on the field where State of Utah First Lady Jeanette Herbert will declare the day as Prevention Dimensions Kids Day in Utah, which promotes drug and alcohol prevention. A color guard presentation will feature students from Lake Ridge Elementary School.

Prevention Dimensions is Utah's Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities curriculum, which supports the Utah State Office of Education pre-kindergarten through 12th grade health core. The program strives to give students a strong foundation of effective violence and substance abuse prevention skills. The program began in 1982 as a joint effort between the Utah State Division of Substance Abuse, Utah State Department of Health, Utah State Office of Education, and Utah State PTA.

Prevention Dimensions Day is part of the Bees organization's ongoing commitment to community outreach, health and wellness and youth development.
