American Flag Retirement Drop Box

Torn or tattered American Flags can be “retired” in the Flag Retirement Drop Box located on the first floor of Norwich City Hall, 100 BroadwayFlags left in the box will be properly taken out of service.  American Flags should never be thrown in the garbage.

Can’t make it to Norwich City Hall?  Drop off your worn flag at Rose City Senior Center and we will bring it to City Hall for you and place it in the box for proper disposal

AARP Prescription Discounts

AARP has partnered with Optum Rx to help members save on FDA-approved medications. If you are already an AARP member, the discount is immediately available. If you are not an AARP member, contact Optum Rx at 1-877-422-7718.

When you go to your pharmacy, show the pharmacist your AARP membership card and ask what the amount of the prescription discount would be. You can either pay with the prescription discount OR with your Part D card but you cannot use both together. Also, if you have a deductible with your Part D card or are in the coverage gap with your Part
D card, this expenditure will not count towards either.
