You may see a National Guard helicopter flying over Pueblo today. No worries. It's not responding to a natural disaster or terrorist incident. Rather, its helping kids say no to drugs.

Pueblo is gearing up for Red Ribbon Week, when schools and communities join together to promote healthy, drug-free lifestyles.

The helicopter will land at Raigoza Park, near I-25 and Pueblo Blvd., at 9:30.

The National Guard will be back in action at 2 pm, when the helicopter lands on the playground of Minnequa Elementary School.
