Daring to dream of taking my hazing awareness play on road to high schools, Greeks, athletes, et al

Writer Journal: I have an idea for a national hazing awareness project while I still have mobiity, energy and passion and health. My friend Ray who directed my play had a “blue sky” suggestion that I have been thinking about taking further than he had imagined. Wouldn’t it be an amazing awareness thing to travel across the country from the East Coast to the West Coast on an unpaid sabbatical in a van with Dogzilla from August 2014 to August 2015 putting on different versions (Greek, athletic, high school) of my one-man play on hazing?  (I had an Indiana library grant a decade ago to take a talk to schools and libraries at night, and son Adam came along as techie). The goal would be OPENLY to challenge that educators and students and coaches would sign a pledge that 2014-2015 would be, at the end, as hazing free as the nation can make it. If you have any places that give education grants, let me know. Of course I would document everything by blog and vlog and do a book and documentary movie called “Travels with Dogzilla,” while working in the evening on my other book projects. Don’t scoff. My favorite song is “Deacon Blues” by Steely Dan (“This one’s for real, I already bought the dream.”). And Dan Bureau at AFA took my challenge to start a hazing think tank and with Charles G. Eberly and many other Greek leaders, pulled it off. My goal would be to break even. Perhaps local newspapers would review the performance, and thereby would create public awareness. Ideas beget suggestions and other ideas and constructive criticism. If I can’t pull it off, then I’ll try writing a novel about an old man who does just this! Dare to dream BIG?
