If you feel different, you drive different. It's as simple as that. Don't drink and drive, plan a sober ride home.

Go into the new year already practicing some healthy habits:
✅Get some rest. You deserve it after the long holiday season, and it'll help you feel better (both physically and mentally).
✅Move your body, even if its just for 5 minutes. Lots of things count, like taking a walk, doing some stretches, or even cleaning the house.
✅Call your doctor and schedule your annual check-up and any screenings you may need for 2026.

A Reminder You Can Go Green This Christmas – Recycle Your Christmas Tree - Drop Off Any Time Before Monday, January 5th

Wondering what to do with your traditional (live) Christmas tree after the holidays? Donate it back to the Earth! Recycle your tree at the Clay County Health Department’s 18th Annual Christmas Tree Collection.
Traditional, real Christmas trees can still serve a valuable purpose after the holiday season. Because they are biodegradable, these trees can be used for environmental applications such as providing valuable habitats for fish in ponds and lakes or being turned into compost or mulch for erosion control and soil stabilization. This year, any donated trees will be given to the Stephen A. Forbes State Park, where they will be used in the lake to provide cover and nutrients for fish.
Christmas trees may be dropped off at the West end of the Clay County Health Department any time before Monday, January 5th by the Christmas Tree Collection sign and orange fencing.
Remember to remove any ornaments, decorations, and tinsel from your tree before dropping it off – these items are not biodegradable and will cause harm to wildlife. A good rule of thumb is to take your tree to the drop-off location in the same condition as you would find it naturally in the forest.
If you have any questions or would like additional information, please contact the Clay County Health Department at (618) 662-4406.

Looking forward to next week, we will be closed on Thursday, January 1st for the New Year's Day Holiday.
