Families Against Bullying event

Another home-grown bullying prevention organization has come together, this time in Owatonna, and they'll have a rally in Manthey Park in Owatonna at 1 p.m. Sunday.

I met Lisa Bock, who's put the effort together with friends and others concerned about bullying, at last night's Dialogues program -- she came over from Owatonna to get information and make contacts because she's committed to the issue. The event Sunday sounds like a great start for FAB. As the posters say, "We are celebrating the Golden Rule -- treating others the way we would like to be treated."

The event is supported by the Steele County Safe and Drug Free Coalition. There's more information on FAB's Facebook page.

Best wishes to Lisa and friends as they get going. It's people like them who can make a huge difference at the grassroots level.
