Tomorrow morning at 9:30 a.m., the media is invited to cover St. Petersburg Police Department’s new bullying prevention initiative featuring a local celebrity, Amos the Wonder Horse!
Amos, a world-renowned, basketball playing miniature horse, and Officer Janie Staples are rolling out their new anti-bullying initiative, “Just Say Whoa to Bullying!”
Officer Staples uses Amos to help engage school aged children in order to retain information. “Just Say Whoa to Bullying” is approved by the Pinellas County School Board and is available within the county at no cost.
