After Grad celebrations are a tradition that started many years ago by Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) as a way to reduce injuries and fatalities from unsupervised after parties that happened following high school graduations. We are excited to continue this tradition for our grads so they can celebrate safely before heading off on their post secondary journeys.
