The Broward Sheriff’s Office will give residents an opportunity to safely dispose of unwanted prescription medications and sensitive documents during a free community event in Parkland.
BSO’s Operation Medicine Cabinet and Shred-A-Thon will be held Saturday, Oct. 3, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Parkland Equestrian Center, 8350 Ranch Road.
