Prevention Tips

Cheers to Drinking Smart.

Three things you can do before — and during — any night out to stay safe, stay in control, and look out for the people around you.

01

Plan a Ride Ahead of Time

Designate a driver, have someone ready to pick you up, or use Natrona County Safe Ride, Uber, Lyft, or Casper Cabs. Plan a safe ride home before you start drinking.

02

Eat and Drink Plenty of Water

Whether you eat at home or dine at one of Casper's great eateries, never drink on an empty stomach. As a rule, always alternate your drinks with a glass of water.

03

Know Your Limit

Be mindful when you drink and avoid grabbing another beer just because you finished your last one. Pause and mentally check in with yourself before — or if — you have another drink.

Change Is at Your Fingertips.
