A Medication Disposal Day will be held from in Ada from 9 to 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 23, in the parking lot between Rite Aid and Northern on Main.
Those who want to dispose of expired or unused prescriptions as well as over-the-counter medications may give them to law enforcement officers at that time.
The meds will be disposed of in a safe, legal, and environmentally conscious way.

Classes ending in a 6 or 1, and the class of 2015, will celebrate reunions.
