Earth Day!!!

Happy Earth Day from RCN!

• Explore trails and green space at Munsinger Gardens
• Take a walk, pick up litter, or spend time outdoors

Small, local actions go a long way.

Are you ready to take back?

National Take Back Day is this Saturday, April 25!

This is a community-wide effort to safely dispose of unused, expired, or unwanted medications and support prevention efforts across our region.

Local opportunities include:
• St. Cloud VA Health Care System Take Back Day: 9 AM to 2 PM
• Sauk Rapids Police Department DEA Take Back Event: 10 AM to 2 PM (in collaboration with ARXG by Reconomy)

Most pharmacies also have medication disposal bins available year-round.

These events provide a safe, secure way to dispose of prescription and over-the-counter medications—and help protect our community, environment, and those who support it every day.
