Minority Youth Fair urges drug and tobacco resistance
Fourteen year old Queena Smallwood and fifth grader Channing Watts spoke at the Frederick County Youth Center pledging to avoid drugs and smoking as part of the 10th annual Minority Youth Fair. The event, sponsored by the local chapter of the National Association of Negro Business and Professional Women’s Clubs, drew more than 60 children and featured workshops on liquor tobacco and drugs. Club leaders said the message is cumulative and aims to reach as many kids as possible, acknowledging some will rebel but stressing early education.
