RE:  Grand Blanc Big Boy restaurant re-opens smoke-free  

            The Genesee County Health Department (GCHD) and the Smoke-free, Multi-Agency, Resource Team (SMART) congratulate the Grand Blanc Big Boy restaurant, located at 11432 S. Saginaw Rd., for their decision to reopen as a smoke-free establishment.  Providing a smoke-free environment helps protect the health of employees and customers, while providing a pleasurable dining experience. 

            The Grand Blanc Big Boy closed in June after a fire drastically damaged the restaurant.  The restaurant reopened on Monday, December 12, 2005 as a smoke-free environment.

            On December 14, 2005 , GCHD and SMART provided Big Boy management with an award of recognition for their commitment to provide Genesee County citizens with a healthy dining environment as a smoke-free restaurant.
