To the Brattleboro Business Community,
The Brattleboro Area Prevention Coalition (BAPC) would like
to thank the businesses that participated in the Responsible Beverage Service Trainings held in March co-sponsored by the Department of Liquor Control.
BAPC recognizes the important role that local retailers and restaurants play in preventing underage drinking. Thank you to the following businesses for participating in the training:
Brattleboro Citgo/Cheshire Oil, Brattleboro Mobil, Canal Street Gulf/L.E. Belcher, Cumberland Farms, Hannaford Supermarket, Hotel Pharmacy, Lipton Mart, Price Chopper, Rite Aid, Riverbend Market/ VT Staple Goods Company, 99 Restaurant, American Legion, Brattleboro Shrine Holding, Chelsea Royal Diner, Dandelion & Sage Restaurant, Fireworks, Kipling’s Restaurant, Leslie’s Tavern, McNeill’s, Panda North, Peter Havens, Pizza Palace, Polish American Club #1, Popolo Restaurant, Sportsmans Lounge, Thai Bamboo, and VFW Post 1034.
Forty-nine employees of retailers and establishments that serve or sell alcohol and/or tobacco attended the trainings. Congratulations to our winners from Canal Street Gulf/L.E. Belcher and Panda North who each won a
$25.00 gift certificate; and Leslie’s Tavern and VFW Post 1034 who each won a ID Checking Guide in the trainings’ raffles! Additionally, Brattleboro Mobil & Thai Bamboo each won a drawing for an ID Checking Kit to safeguard against false IDs.
Sponsoring the Responsible Beverage Service Trainings is part of Brattleboro Area Prevention Coalition’s comprehensive approach to increase collaboration with local retailers to reduce and prevent underage use of alcohol and tobacco and sales/service to intoxicated customers in our community. Other retailer projects include the Brattleboro Responsible Retailing Project (helping licensees prevent underage alcohol sales and sales/service to intoxicated customers); and the Healthy Retailers initiative which encourages healthier food and beverage choices and discourages tobacco and alcohol use among youth.
Please be part of the solution by joining BAPC in preventing substance abuse in our community. Call 257-2175 for more information!
Sincerely,
Cassandra Holloway
