This Monday, 3/27 from 7pm to 8:30pm, Cobb County Police, public health officials and local students are set to have a panel discussion about the impact of underage drinking.

According to an MDJ article, Cathy Finck, a Cobb County Underage Drinking Task Force member said, “The purpose is really to increase the community’s awareness of underage drinking in Cobb County to know who’s drinking, where they’re getting it, and the affect it has on the community,”

They are really seeking to find solutions to the underage drinking problem in Cobb County. The discussion will include such things as who is drinking, where and how easily accessible alcohol is in 2006.

Be sure to attend the panel discussion to provide your input to the discussion. A key to success is to reach out to the elementary and middle school students before they engage in the activity.
