First Coast News Staff A recently released report has determined that more male high school athletes use chewing tobacco then the general public. The campaign is designed to get kids to stop using chewing tobacco and make them aware of the dangers of using such products. Every year 30,000 people are diagnosed with oral cancer and half of them die within five years of their diagnosis.
Tobacco is a leading contributor of oral cancer.
The campaign will kick off at 5pm at Wolfson Park before the Jacksonville Suns contest this evening. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, rewritten, or redistributed.
