Stickers On Bottles Advocate Safe Fourth

Hood River County’s Prevention Department and the Hood River Valley High School Health Media Club has rolled out its sticker shock program, putting a message on beer cases in stores throughout the County reminding people to celebrate the Fourth of July safely.  Prevention Department director Belinda Ballah says the sticker says “Celebrate Independence, not a jail sentence,” a reminder to not provide alcohol to minors and don’t drive under the influence of alcohol.  The sticker program takes place twice a year.  It also is done prior to the Super Bowl.
