Hi y'all. I posted this in the activism section yesterday because I for some reason couldn't find the general board. This morning it popped right up, go figure. anyhow, here ya go:
I went last Friday to my daughters school and set up an anti smokeless booth during their health fair. I had a banner made up. Pictures from my operation enlarged. Lots of brochures. As much stuff as I could get my hands on so as to educate these young people about the dangers. I feel it was a bigger success than I planned as I got 8 boys to give up nine cans of dip. Mind you, tobacco is illegal in schools anyhow. But these boys were compelled to give it up. One went back to his locker and brought it. Another went to his truck and got 2 cans. I had a small red trash can for them. Several I talked to for a long time. And I could tell several were going to have a tough time quitting. Hopefully they will follow through with my suggestion on forming a quit support group.
Anyhow, I have a short story and some pics on my web site. Those that kknow it, go look if you can. Those that don't, email me. Y'all have a great tobacco free day!!! God bless, Curtis

Curtis,

You are the greatest. You are doing such a wonderful service for your community and for the lives of those that you will undoubtedly save.

Keep it up and I hope you are feeling well.

Jerry

Curtis, you are one generous hearted, community spirited guy, and my hat is off to you! Words are not nearly as persuasive as those pictures you have.
What a terrific thing you are doing!
