Young people from groups around Midland are joining thousands of youths across the country to take part in Kick Butts Day, a nationwide initiative that helps kids become leaders in the effort to prevent youth tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke. As part of the Kick Butts Day campaign, teens will collect cigarette butts from seven playgrounds in Midland to measure the amount and then prepare follow-up presentations to advocate for tobacco free zones in children’s play areas. Throughout the year, teen volunteers take part in a variety of activities to protect kids from tobacco, including having displays at Kids Day at the Mall and Midland’s Riverdays and a week-long effort at the Midland County Fair in August.
