WESTMINSTER, Colo -- So that's what 150 pounds worth of drugs looks like! #NationalPrescriptionDrugTakeBackDay

Thanks to everyone who dropped off any unused/expired medication at the Public Safety Center to be safely disposed of. Proper disposal prevents the potential for accidents and misuse, protecting our community. We hold this event in partnership with the DEA twice a year. The next one will be in April (details will be provided when we have more info to share).
