Shouts of “No!” echoed off the cafeteria walls at Clark Elementary School on Monday. Over 100 children practiced what they should say if ever offered cigarettes, drugs or alcohol.

Standing on the stage, encouraging the shouts and cheers, was a giant dancing dog named Buffy and her singing partner, Pam Weeks.

The duo are visiting all nine elementary schools in the Selma City School System this week performing a show entitled “Cool is Me, I’m Drug Free.”

Using original songs, stories and audience interaction, the Pam and Buffy Show puts an entertaining spin on the classic message of saying no to drugs.

“All the kids have been really great,” Weeks said. “We are having a lot of fun.”

The show’s school tour is sponsored by the City of Selma and Councilwoman Jannie Venter.

Venter said she first heard of the Pam and Buffy Show through a friend and made arrangements the act to come to Selma.

“Even though they are only in elementary school, these kids could still come in contact with drugs,” Venter said. “Someone could give them drugs to carry and they wouldn’t even know what it was. We are trying to tell these kids that they shouldn’t take things from strangers.”

Venter added that the program could not have come at a better time.

With the recent weekend shooting, she said, Selma needs a more positive message to send to kids.

“I wanted to do something positive for Selma and our children,” Venter said. “We need to stop the problem before it gets started.”

Along with Clark, the Pam and Buffy Show visited School of Discovery Genesis Center and Sophia P. Kingston elementary schools on Monday.

The tour will continue today and Wednesday, before finally coming to an end Thursday afternoon with a performance at the Carl C. Morgan Convention Center.

Weeks said the Pam and Buffy Show has been teaching kids to reach their goals and stay way from drugs for the past 14 years.

The show has been a staple at Six Flags over Georgia and Weeks hosts her own television show called “Kids Talk” every Sunday morning on PAX.

“I’ve been going to college, so this is the first time in four years I’ve been able to hit the road,” Weeks said.

In recognition of the special school tour, Mayor James Perkins declared this the Pam and Buffy Drug Free Week throughout the city.

“We want to tell our kids that drug free is the way to be,” Venter said.
