Mayor’s Task Force on Youth Alcohol & Drug Use has something up its sleeve

Griff Wigley posted on Feb 06 2008 at 07:29

I saw this sub-committee of the Mayor’s Task Force on Youth Alcohol & Drug Use meeting yesterday at the HideAway Coffeehouse and Wine Bar.

They were scheming about a big event coming up in March.

L to R: Sharon Henry, Joan Janusz, Mary Nelson, Kathy Sandberg, Kathy Cooper.
