Vermont Kids Against Tobacco and Halloween
Did you know Flood Brook’s Vermont Kids Against Tobacco has started?! Join the fun! When we meet, after school on Wednesdays, we spend some time just hanging out and having a snack and then we get down to business. Right now we are in the process of creating Halloween cards, inserting a smoke free sticker and a tobacco fact. While the general consensus for the Halloween activity included zombies and trap doors, we decided that coloring Halloween cards would be fun.
