Anyone who sells or serves alcohol or 3.2 beer is being invited to attend a training session Feb. 28.
Set at the Painter building, Room 104 at Green Country Technology Center, the training session will start at 1 and end at 4 p.m. It is being hosted by the OSU Prevention Programs.
“Prevention of Youth Access to Alcohol Act" is an Oklahoma state law that protects youth from the harmful effects of alcohol use by making it illegal to provide or sell alcohol or 3.2 beer to anyone under the age of 21,” said Aaron Graffman. “This law is continually being enforced by law enforcement agencies. If this harmful substance is sold to a person under the legal age, the contributor will face legal consequences consisting of an expensive citation, possible jail time, and/or felony charges.”
The training provides all who sell and serve alcohol to learn about state laws. It is free of charge.
Graffman said those attending will be given informational packets.
Anyone wishing to attend should call OSU Prevention Programs at 918-756-1248.
