SYRACUSE -- A program aimed at educating kids about the danger of drugs could be in its final weeks.

The Executive Director of the Rite Aid Drug Quiz Show says the organization only has funding to cover it through June 30th. Susan Meidenbauer says she's looking at options to keep the contest going. Right now, Rite Aid is the sole sponsor. Meidenbauer says she may look for multiple sponsors.

Wednesday, teams of kids from 32 schools across Central New York competed in the Rite Aid Drug Quiz Show Regional Playoffs. Meidenbauer says the kids are just some of the 450,000 that have been touched by the Drug Quiz Show.
