Stop Smoking
Dump the cigarette habit. And stay away from those who do smoke. Second-hand smoke can be almost as dangerous. Once you stop, your risks for heart disease and some cancers will begin decreasing righ away. The longer you go without smoking, the better. The risks continue to fall over time. Mecklenburg County Park & Recreation Department facilities are going tobacco-free on March 18, 2015. This includes facility parking lots. Use of any tobacco product on facility grounds will be prohibited, and subject to a fine.
