Georgia’s new Smoke-Free Air Act goes into effect on July 1.
To celebrate everyone’s hard work and dedication to passing this legislation, we are urging everyone to declare July 1 “Smoke-Free Restaurant Appreciation Day” in communities all across Georgia.
Your local organization or coalition can celebrate at a newly smoke-free restaurant, hold a media event, have a proclamation issued, etc. This is a great opportunity to call attention to the positive aspects of smoke free air in your community.
We can help with free stickers and support for your event. Please share this announcement with family, friends and co-workers and ask them to take three easy steps to help support their favorite restaurants and the new smoke-free air law in Georgia:
Go out to eat at your favorite restaurant on Friday July 1.
Ask to speak with the restaurant manager, operator or owner and thank them for being smoke-free.
Write a brief personal note on your check, such as “Thanks for being smoke-free” or “I enjoyed the smoke-free dining experience.”
