NATIONAL DRUG TAKE BACK
The East Lyme Police Department is participating in the DEA National Drug Take Back Day
to be held on Saturday, April 30th from 10am to 2pm. Everyone is encouraged to turn in unneeded
medication for safe disposal.
Check out your medicine cabinet or wherever you may keep medications – examine what you have –
is the medication still used? – is the medication expired? If you answer yes to either of these
questions, those medications need to be removed properly and this is your opportunity.
Remember, the East Lyme Police station is in its new location at 277 West Main Street.
During the week of April 25th, the Senior Center will help those folks that need a ride – if you have
medications you need to dispose of, reserve a ride with us and we will get you to Police Department.
