There is a location change planned for this fall’s Ross County M.A.D.E. Rally. Instead of being in front of the Ross County Courthouse in downtown Chillicothe, the October 29th morning rally will be held at the Veterans Affairs Memorial Stadium.

M.A.D.E. stands for (My Attitude Determines Everything) and is geared toward positive messaging in an attempt to keep young people away from various types of abuse, including substance abuse.

Organizers estimate there could be as many as 1,800 students attending the 9:30am-noon event on October 29th, coming from schools in Ross, Pickaway, Pike and Highland counties, among possibly others.

American Idol finalist Phillip Murphy will be featured as he will be singing and giving his personal story that should prove appropriate for the M.A.D.E. audience.

The rally is free to all M.A.D.E. members, with membership sign-ups available at the school where high school students attend.
