N-O-T Success

“The success stories that are coming in now that most of the students have QUIT smoking are incredible. The girls' group made and took Valentines to the local rest home today as part of the session seven, give back to the community. It was wonderful and they interacted so well with the residents. It also gave them some thinking on the future and how they want to end up (old and sick from smoking or healthier from quitting). If anyone needed a little extra motivation, the rest home did it. Also, the boys' group just won an exercise contest that we had set up between the two groups. We used thermometers with number of minutes exercised and the group to get to the top first won. Many of the boys have paired up and are lifting weights together. For everyday they are smoke free I am giving them a pass to the rec. center to work out/swim/play basketball, etc. Your money is being put to great use and they are forming some awesome habits. Have a great day and thanks for a great program.”
