Ann and her friends experienced a typical Spring Break filled with risky and dangerous behaviors. Underage drinking, alcohol poisoning, and criminal offenses led to their arrest and their parents' deep concern. The unsupervised and unguided Spring Break package contributed to their troubles.

Safer alternatives to Spring Break include educational trips, community service, and personal development.
