A P EOPLE www.greenriverstar.com Wednesday, August 19, 2020 A day with the market vendors By SHAY MAHANA e
Every week throughout the summer, residents driving along Uinta Drive will see a collection trailers and popup shops, as well as a large group of customers, gathered on Roosevelt Drive. The Green River Farmers’ Market features local produce, goods and handmade creations. The market is also a great place for vendors to seek e posure and support. For Leslie Webster, the founder of LGWimaginations, the market is a means of introducing people to her art. Webster sells acrylic poured paintings, along with other poured paint pieces. Webster has been producing art for more than two years and has lived in Green River since 1993. She started selling her pieces at the market this year to get more public awareness and to interact with members of the community. Her favorite part of being a vendor is the interaction between residents and other vendors while selling her art. It takes Webster Terri Wood goes through her jewelry display prior to the start of the weekly Green River Farmers’ Market last week.

According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, underage drinking is a serious public health problem in the United States. Alcohol is the most widely used substance of abuse among America’s youth, and drinking by young people causes multiple health and safety risks. The 2018 Prevention Needs Assessment (PNA) for Sweetwater County’s data shows that 33.5% of Sweetwater County high school students consumed alcohol within the past 30 days. Of the 33.5%, 22.29% obtained the alcohol from another person over the age of 21 and 15.25% obtained the alcohol from their parents. (https://www.pnasurvey.org/Home) Underage drinking is illegal and can cause serious harm to teens as the brain is still developing, not to mention the increased risk of teens driving impaired. According to the Alcohol and Crime report from the Wyoming Association of Sheri s and Chiefs of Police (WASCOP), there were 30 underage DUI arrests in Sweetwater County in 2018. Sweetwater County Prevention will be running the Parents Who Host, Lose The Most: Don’t be a party to teenage drinking® campaign to educate parents and individuals over the age of 21 about the health and safety risks associated with serving alcohol at teen house parties and increases awareness of and compliance with state underage drinking laws.Have a conversation with your teen today about the dangers of underage drinking!

A project initiated by the National Guard to improve the dirt runway at the Greater Green River Intergalactic Spaceport took place last week. The project, which was a training exercise for the group, saved the city more than $2 million in work it initially wanted to accomplish. The city can now seek additional funding to further improve the runway and surrounding area.
