ALAMOSA — Once again, the Alamosa Public Library (APL) is serving as a resource for the residents of the city by offering helpful information at exactly the right time.
In this instance, the information relates to a somewhat controversial question that voters will be asked to answer on the November ballot, placed there by the city of Alamosa.
Basically, voters will be asked if the City of Alamosa should allow the retail sale of medical marijuana within the city limits.
Despite having been legalized in Colorado for almost a quarter of a century, medical marijuana is still somewhat a mystery to people. Although not on the ballot, people also have questions about CBD and what is its relationship to marijuana.
For all those who are wondering about those topics, the APL is sponsoring a one-hour presentation by an organization known as Leaf411, one of the leaders in the medical cannabis industry in providing the answers to questions people have.
On Saturday, Oct. 5, at 5:30 p.m., Leaf411, the nation’s first cannabis nurse hotline and guidance service, is hosting a one-hour presentation about cannabis medicines.
According to Maria Kramer, manager of APL, during the presentation, a Leaf411 nurse will provide a general overview of cannabis medicine and explain how a cannabis nurse can assist members of the public in finding answers to their questions.
People attending the session are invited to bring the packaging of any cannabis medications you are taking or have questions about. Please leave the medication itself at home.
A discussion of CBD, another topic that has sparked tremendous interest in recent years, will be included in the presentation.
Anyone with questions about the organization can go to their website https://leaf411.org to learn more about who they are and what they do.
The presentation is free and will be held in the library at 300 Hunt Ave. in Alamosa.
