Spanish River Students
Boca Raton students at Spanish River High School students are continuing to take a stand when it comes to texting while driving. Their latest initiative is Rock2Live but the students have been on a mission since September 2011 to create a National Awareness Day against Texting and Driving, supported by celebrities such as Justin Bieber, Andy Pilgrim and now the A-list stars for this music festival. Check out their site and take the pledge.

To send the message about responsible texting to millions, the concert will be “live” streamed in HD. If you can’t make it to the concert, you can buy an “E-Ticket” from Ticketmaster and watch it on your smartphone, computer or tablet. The live streaming HD interface to make this an interactive event, is being pioneered by Gotham Media Services.
