To our community at large:
During recent Yom Tovim and Purims of the past there have been no lack of incidents in which bochrim (and others) drank way too much and put themselves in a very dangerous risk, and ended up harming themselves in a host of ways, leading to some seriously risky medical situations.
Therefore, I urge everyone to please take responsibility of your children. If you allow them to drink please make sure it is supervised and never should anyone allow their kids to drink so much to end up in an Intensive Care Unit. Additionally, please be aware that it may be illegal to give alcohol to another person’s child.
Thank you and have a happy Purim.

If you want to go to prison, serving alcohol to minors is a great way to to get transportation expenses covered.

In the past, the CHPD has gone after individuals in our community for providing alcohol to minors. Giving kids alcohol is dangerous illegal, and sets a bad example of going against Dina d malchoosa…….
