2019 No Limits Fall Activism Summit
Big Tobacco has a long history of marketing its deadly products to youth through manipulation and deception, and we’ve seen it all and had enough of it! As youth, we have the voice of change in this world and the power to make a positive difference. By using our voice, we will continue to stand up against Big Tobacco, bringing attention to the environmental impacts of tobacco products and marketing toward youth. Youth can empower, help guide and provide our peers with resources to create the change.
A few of the topics youth will learn about include No Limits and Big Tobacco 101, Big Tobacco’s history of manipulative marketing tactics, the positive difference youth are capable of making, how tobacco harms the environment, and how to take strategic steps in the right direction to make change a reality.
Here’s a quick summary:
When: November 16 – 17, 2019
Where: Divots Conference Center, Norfolk, NE
Cost: FREE (We’ll even pick you up!)
We’re looking for Nebraska youth who:
Are 12–18 years old, in grades 7–12.
Want to find out the truth behind Big Tobacco’s lies.
Are willing to take action against tobacco in their community and state.
Do you need a group or sponsor?
Both individuals and groups are welcome. A group sponsor is encouraged but not required.

Recently I was in Nebraska City when I ran into an old friend. As we were visiting, another lady overheard that I used to live in Plattsmouth and showed me this photo. She said she lives in or near Percival, Iowa and after the recent flooding this photo was found on her property. Because of the background showing Steube's Jack and Jill, we determined it was taken in front of the former Community Center across the street. It looks like it could have been a milestone birthday celebration or retirement party. The date on the photo is June 24, 2006. If you, or someone you know, lost some belongings due to the floods, and would like this original picture back, contact Pat, at 402-235-2926, or This email address is being protected from spambots.
