Baraga, Michigan: Judge Bans Smoking at American Legion

[smokinlady]

As far as I understand the law, you already can't smoke in any of the clubs or halls. No Elks, the Detroit Athletic club, nothing, private or not. Not based on serving food, but based on if you employ people. If you got your exemption as a cigar bar here, you actually can serve food in said establishment. There are a few cigar bars in Michigan that still serve food (Leaf, Barley and Vine in Brighton being one example). They amended the ban as close as a week before it took effect, cutting out the clubs. Small bargain was made writing them out. Very poorly written..... very frustrating...
