Teens who commit to safe driving can win superstar concert

From:  The Sentinel-Tribune

Teens who commit to safe driving have the chance to bring award winning superstar sibling sensation The Band Perry to their hometown for a private concert this coming school year.

As part of the State Farm Celebrate My Drive program, the company is teaming up with The Band Perry to encourage safe driving in high schools across the U.S. and Canada. Last year more than 6.3 million safe driving commitments were made through this program. Celebrate My Drive promotes responsible driving practices like 2N2: two eyes on the road and two hands on the wheel.

"We have such great memories of when we first got our driver's licenses and we love that Celebrate My Drive is such a positive program that supports new teen drivers," said members of The Band Perry. "Teen driver safety continues to be a major issue, and this program gives us a platform to spread the word and encourage safe driving in teens' first years behind the wheel."

Through Oct. 7, administrators at U.S. and Canadian high schools can go to www.celebratemydrive.com to register to participate in the celebration. Teens and community members can commit to safe driving once a day every day from Oct. 15-24 in support of their favorite high school. Two grand prize winning schools will receive a private concert from The Band Perry. The 100 high schools with the most online safe driving commitments will win a grant award of $25,000 or $100,000.
