WHEN: August 18, 2008 at 1:00PM
WHERE: Woodsdale/Pleasanton Area Businesses who choose to participate.
WHO: Local youth from We Are The Future youth group, the Wheeling Police Department, the Ohio County Sheriff’s Department and the Ohio County Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition have joined forces to bring about social change. As of now, the youth will be going to CVS, Kroger, and Gumby’s. Let’s give these businesses a big hand for stepping up and showing the community that they do not support underage drinking and that they have made thoughtful business decisions and sales procedures.
WHY: This action will allow area business owners the opportunity to showcase that they really do take underage drinking laws seriously and care for the well being of our community. The involved youth will be empowered to know that their voice is heard and they can influence adults in the community and make a difference.
