Shred-A-Thon and Operation Medicine Cabinet This Saturday March 8 in Tamarac

 

Last year’s Shred-A-Thon was very busy but well-organized

By: Sharon Aron Baron

Time to throw out old documents and any old medications because the Broward Sheriff’s Office will hold a Shred-A-Thon and Operation Medicine Cabinet prescription drug “take back” event this Saturday at King’s Point in Tamarac from 10 am – 1 pm.

Drive up in your car and your items will be safely destroyed.   You can even bring your old computer hard drive and watch as they have a machine specially designed to destroy these as well.

The prescription drug take back program, operating under the name Operation Medicine Cabinet, allows participants to turn in unused or expired prescription medication to receive a $5 gift card (while supplies last, limit one per family).

Hopefully, Sheriff Scott Israel will be making an appearance as well, so get there early as this is one of the most popular Shred-A-Thon’s in the county!

10 a.m. – 1 pm, Saturday, March 8, 2014
