Saturday is National Drug Take-Back Day, and local sheriff departments will be giving you a chance to clean out your medicine cabinets. Door County residents will be able to stop by Brussels-Union Gardner Fire, Sister Bay-Liberty Grove Fire, or the Door County Sheriff's Department from 1:00 to 3:00 PM on Saturday to dispose of unused and expired medications. The efforts are to keep unused drugs out of people's homes and off the streets. Door County Chief Deputy Pat McCarty explained why this is a vital way to dispose of the medications properly.
Both Door and Kewaunee County have drop boxes available for proper disposal year-round.
