Plan ahead to kick the smoking habit

The Friends of the Jamestown Philomenian Library, and the Jamestown Substance Abuse Prevention Task Force, are giving local residents plenty of time to prepare for their quit-smoking New Year’s resolutions.

They have organized a quit the smoking habit program for Monday, Dec. 4, from 7 to 9 p.m. in the library museum room.

The presentation is designed for those who may want to quit smoking as a New Year’s resolution, or for people who want to help someone else quit smoking.

The free program will bring together a professor of biomedical sciences, Robert Rodgers of URI; a coordinator of Jamestown’s substance abuse prevention task force, Laura Hosley, as well as a pharmacist, Tim Baker of Baker’s Pharmacy.

The program is open to the public. For information call 423-7281.
