**The Youth Board of the Diocese of Minnesota discourages the smoking and chewing of tobacco because we value life. We encourage your presence in our community of faith, and ask that you do not smoke or chew while with us. Since we understand that tobacco is a highly addictive substance we recognize that this may not be possible for all people. The smoking and chewing of tobacco by participants is tolerated only in designated areas and at designated times. Minnesota law states that it is illegal for those under 18 to smoke. Therefore, if any person, under 18 uses tobacco at Diocesan sponsored programs, his/her parent/guardian will be contacted.
