The agency will be setting up a drive-thru style event where people can drop off old medications and prescriptions for free. The Agency on Aging teamed up with the Allen County Sheriff's Office for this event to help make sure that members of the community can stay safe and prevent abuse of the several kinds of medication that they'll be accepting at the event.

It is free to the public and everyone is invited to drop off their medications.
