  4. Results From Sheriff's Dept. Drug Drop & Food Drive

 

Washington County Sheriff’s Deputies held their quarterly Drive-Thru Drug Drop / Food Drive on Saturday, May 11.

They collected and incinerated 31 pounds of prescription medications, bringing the total amount of collected prescription medications to 1,062 pounds since the start of the program in the fall of 2019.

The department also collected 314 pounds of non-perishable food items, which were donated to the Washington County Food Bank. HUNGER KNOWS NO SEASON!

Sheriff Miller would like to thank everyone who dropped off prescription medications to be safely disposed of and say a special thank you to everyone who donated food for our local food bank.

Thank you to Matt Hein, who runs this important program for the sheriff’s department and to his helpers, Deputy Hailee Lopotosky, Deputy Tory Hildreth and Trenton Miller, who also helped with this event.
