Cayman Net News: Bars will have a much healthier environment for their patrons

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Bars will have a much healthier environment for their patrons

Tuesday, March 14, 2006

Dear Sir,

In reference to the banning of smoking in licensed bars. Having been an owner/manager of a very active bar in Cayman I can attest to the fact that second-hand smoke in Cayman bars is extreme.

Years ago in California the state banned smoking in bars. There was a tremendous uproar. Petitions, bar owners, marching in the streets. The bar owners said they would all go out of business. Today business is better than ever and the “no smoking” ban has been completely accepted.

Cayman bars will not suffer financially and they will have a much healthier environment for their patrons.

All the best Cayman
