This is a great opportunity for those who missed the previous event due to the Halloween snow storm. If you have accumulated unwanted, unused prescription drugs, this is your opportunity to safely dispose of these medications. In addition, this initiative is geared for our county residents' safety in the event of an accidental overdose of unused medications. This is a nation-wide event and in the past 13 months, 498.5 tons of medication has been properly taken out of circulation and have not landed in our landfills or waterways. Quite an amount! Listed below are the Police Departments in our area that are participating.
