Salem is 66% smoke-freePosted Sep17, 2008 at 05:01 PMThe restaurants in Salem, that is. The Virginia Department of Health added to its website a list of smoke-free restaurants int the state -- and also computed what percentage of restaurants in each locality can be considered smoke-free. The highest percentage belongs to Craig County, where 100 percent of the restaurants are smoke-free. The lowest is Petersburg, where only 4 percent of the restaurants are smoke-free. Statewide, the figure is 67 percent, so Salem is just a silly millimeter under the average. If anyone remembers the old Benson & Hedge's ads, you'll get the reference. For the state's website, click here. Once you get there, look under "information and resources" on the right hand side of the page. For more on this from business writer Jenny Boone, see her retail blog, The Storefront. Want to comment on smoke-free restaurants in Salem? Click "comment" below. |
