Project Sticker Shock - Important Guidelines
Groups implementing Project Sticker
Shock follow these guidelines:
- Stickers should be placed
on multi-packs, not directly on bottles or cans.
- Stickers should not cover
brand names or bar codes.
- Youth should be supervised
by adults (chaperones and store staff) at all times in the store.
- Ask the store staff if
they have any specific requests, expectations, or restrictions about
where/how stickers should be applied.
- If packages must be moved
to apply stickers, only adults over age 21 and/or store employees
should handle the alcohol.
- For youth groups implementing
Project Sticker Shock, adult coordinators/teachers should ensure
that youth under 18 have parental permission to participate in the
project.
Note:
Whenever youth are stickering beer, an adult chaperone must be present
to supervise. This is crucial for many reasons, including the need
to ensure that you are not criticized for breaking the law yourselves,
since the handling of alcohol by minors is also prohibited by law (unless
it is in the scope of employment).
