I believe they only have it once a year and you did just miss the last one. It was this past Saturday the 24th.

I would love to find a way to get some left over Humara to someone or an organization that could use it, this is several thousand dollars of medication. If anyone knows where this could be put to good use, please let me know.

I also want to know that information. I think they have a "get rid of medicine" day every few months. I bet Bogie can tell us who to call, or what the schedule is.

The last bunch I got rid of was sponsored by the Sumter County Sheriff's office at 466/Morse Blvd.

I think they do this twice a year.

Also trying to find out where I can bring my Sharps stuff (diabetic needles tips and testing supplies) now that the hospital no longer takes it, and neither does anyplace else.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Disposal in the building behind the firehall, which I call the "tax" building? I was hoping Bogie would provide a link to their schedule.
