Healthy Lamoille Valley Games Gala!
Healthy Lamoille Valley is a drug-free communities coalition seeking to prevent and reduce youth substance use in the Lamoille Valley.

Alcohol and cannabis can impact your ability to drive. If you’re not able to drive, have a designated driver who can take over.
