Tragedy to hit home at Mock DWI

Chester Academy will conduct a Mock DWI on Tuesday, May 13 (rain date May 15), in time for prom season. During this simulation, students will witness what occurs at the scene of a fatal DWI, with all the pandemonium that comes when emergency responders descend on a scene of injury and tragedy. Several members of the junior class will act as victims in this simulation, which is being coordinated with The Town of Chester Police Department, The Volunteer Fire Department, Mobile Life Support, Life Net of New York, Department of Public Works, Flynn Funeral Home, and Loyal Tire and Auto Center.
