The Children’s Aid Society of Simcoe County wants to be heard loud and clear.

The society is holding a shout-off to kick off its 2007 Child Abuse Prevention campaign. Participants will be asked to yell, “use your voice - to speak up for children” and have their volume measured on a decimeter.

The event will take place Oct. 1 on the main floor of the Kozlov Centre on Bayfield St. between noon and 12:45 p.m.
