If you want to light up at a Sheldon Clark Cardinals game or on Martin County school property the schools superintendent says there are other places to go. The ordinance is not county-wide.

"We are by no means anti-tobacco in the county, that is not our intentions at all. We simply want our sites to be as clean and outstanding as possible," Martin County Schools Superintendent Mark Blackburn said.

And for those thinking about lighting up anyway do not be surprised if you are asked to put it out.

"If they resist, we are going to escort them off the property, off the school property," Martin County Sheriff Garmon Preece says.

We talked to some Sheldon Clark tailgaters and they are not fans of the ban.

"They have took my rights and twisted them to a point where I can not smoke anywhere on the premises," Mable Sites said.

"I disagree. I think they should have a smoking area the parents. They come out and support the kids so they should have a place to smoke," Sheldon Clark Senior Martika McCoy said.

Asked whether or not a designated area for smokers would happen, Blackburn said it was possible but for now the policy stays as is.

"Simply we are trying to get a healthier community and also make sure our students are able to understand what smoking and tobacco use may do for them in the future" Blackburn said.
