I have a ??? Concerning visiting, Hopefully someone can answer this -- When you go out to visit can we as the visitor go out and smoke then return? I am a heavy smoker and my guy isn't I understand the prisoners can smoke out there but not the visitors so we were wondering how that works anyone know??? The prison I am talking about is Avenal State Prison. Thank you in advance for any and all information in regards to this matter.

Hi,

Since you had some specific visitation questions for Avenal, I have moved this thread to the California forum on PTO so your post will have the opportunity to get more specific responses and the best answers to your questions, and won’t get lost in the busy Visitation forum... we’ve found they often get more and better answers there, AND the information will be here to help others in the future, too. :)

You also might want to thumb thru the California forum to see if some of your questions have already been answered in the past... the direct link to the forum is here:

Hope you find the info you're looking for and good luck! :)

Honey....bite the bullet or get the patch because once you're in, you're in....they will not let you go in and out nor will they let you smoke during vistation :nono: . Sucks for a smoker, I know (I am not a smoker, but the girl I ride with is), so maybe get a patch for the day....if you're that heavy a smoker...attach a few of them on your body to get you through the day! :haha: LMAO!

Good luck, hun! :thumbsup:

Yep, wear a patch, cheek chewing gum, and bring lots of quarters for food to munch on.
That's how it works.

yep yep yep. That's what I do I put a patch on right when I walk in. Then I pull it off right when I walk out. Which I should really take advantage of the time not smoking but its hard..One day......Deb
