Retail

Reality Check members recently went out to the local retail stores around Chateaugay. I don't know if you have been noticing but there are ads in the windows which have been placed by tobacco brand Representative. We took initiative to make a note of these ads. I'm not going to name names, but did you know some of these stores are getting paid for these ridiculous ads. These ads are placed meticulously low in door windows so that younger children can notice these ads. Do you like the idea of children being exposed to these ads. There is a high percentage of children who are exposed to ads, that start smoking. they are enticed by these ads. these ads seem pretty cool the way television, magazines, and even celebrities make them seem. THEY ARE NOT COOL! HELP STOP IT WITH YOUR SUPPORT. LEARN THE FACTS. Educate yourself on what is really happening. Be Aware, and don't forget there is always information available right near you. if you are looking for more information talk to one of our reality check members. Stephen Bernier, Laura Stewart, Britt Drollette, Rachel LaTour, and Danny Wilcox. We will do everything we can to answer any questions you may have.
