Cheatham County Youth Pledge to NOT Play with Drugs The Cheatham County Community Enhancement Coalition is on a mission to make Cheatham County a safe, healthy, and drug-free community. As part of our mission, we want our county’s youth to grow up drug-free. During the Movement Meetup event held at Burns Park, Kingston Springs, the Coalition asked youth if they would pledge to not play with drugs and what healthy habits they would do instead. Everyone who signed the pledge could decorate their name with their favorite sport, toy, or activity. We were able to get 41 kids to pledge to a drug-free lifestyle! The Coalition had also set up a tobacco trivia wheel to quiz youth on how the mind and body are affected by tobacco. Did you know that a person who smokes is inhaling chemicals that are used to kill bugs and rats? EW! Instead of putting toxic chemicals in your body, keep your mind and body energized with lots of water and healthy foods. Thanks to everyone who came up to our booth to answer a trivia question. Because our youth are so smart the Coalition gave away 75 prizes including water bottles, shades, and stress balls; However, the biggest prize is the healthy, relaxing life you can live by being tobacco-free. 395 S.
