Preston County, W.Va. Expands Smoking Ban
The smoking ban in Preston County, W.Va. grew on Wednesday night as the county’s board of health approved a change that will prohibit smoking in bars, hotels, motels and private clubs.
Previously, smoking had just been banned in restaurants. The board approved the proposal by a 4-1 vote, according to WBOY-TV.
Preston County is located in the northern part of the state along the border with Pennsylvania, with the county seat of Kingwood located just over 90 miles south of Pittsburgh, Pa. It has a population of just under 34,000 people.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
