VILLAS – The Lower Township Police Department and Lower Township Healthy Youth Coalition Oct. 24 will be participating in National Prescription Drug Take-back Day.
According to a release, on this day, officers will be at the entrance to Acme Markets, located in the Bayshore Mall, at 3845 Bayshore Rd., in North Cape May, between the hours of 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. During that time, residents can turn in any unwanted or expired prescription medicines or drugs to police officers.
