Pale green poster with the visual occupying most of the poster. The visual is a photograph of a young girl, Karissa Lynn Carroll, in mid-stride. There are trees in the background and the softball game is being played in a grassy field. Picture caption: Karissa Lynn Carroll of Fort Yukon runs between bases in a game of softball in the summer of 2002. Resisting everyone's efforts to have someone pinch-hit for her, Karissa eventually crossed home plate to score a run. Photographer, Bill Hess. The text on the poster reads: Every year, about 1,200 people in Alaska die from diseases related to tobacco use. Rates of cancer among Alaska Natives are increasing, especially among women who use tobacco. Celebrate life. See, hear, smell, taste, feel, laugh, and love--tobacco-free! Choose health!
