Sponsors:
Nearly 10 percent of the stu
dents in both grades said they got
alcohol from their parents’ liquor
cabinet. Almost 11 percent of 8th
graders and 20 percent of 11 th grad
ers said other adults furnished
them with alcohol. Shoulder tap
ping is a common method used by
minors to obtain alcohol. They wait
outside stores until a witling adult ’
goes inside and makes the buy for
1
them.
"These are alarming statistics,”
said Pamela S. Erickson, Oregon
Liquor Control
Com m ission director. “And
that’s why I’ve asked our regula
tory division to focus more effort
on illegal furnishing o f alcohol.”
She said adults who furnish al
cohol to minors face a $350 fine on
the first misdemeanor conviction.

Teens Get Alcohol Primarily from Friends
When it comes to getting booze,
Oregon’s middle and high school
students often count on their
friends as suppliers of their illegal
alcohol.
According to a recent survey
by Oregon’s Department of Hu
man Services, almost 16 percent of
8th graders and 33 percent of high
school juniors who drink, said they
obtain alcohol from their friends.
