Congratulations to Salmo Secondary Students Ruby and Lukas for their winning posters in Interior Health Authority's Take a Breath: Teen Voices on Tabacco and Vaping poster contest!

Here is an excerpt from the IHA news release:

Fourteen-year-old Salmo resident Ruby was one of the winning artists. “I feel as though it is a real issue in modern day teen life and can be extremely addictive no matter who you are,” Ruby says. “There are so many disadvantages to smoking and vaping and it can be harmful to everyone's life and body. It is ultimately your decision what you decide to do with your life, but don't recommend vaping/smoking to anyone, even if you believe it'll boost your popularity or confidence.”
