BOZEMAN — Despite Mother Nature throwing a curveball, a program dedicated to getting unused prescriptions off the streets had a good month.

October Drug Take Back Day collected 18 pounds of expired medications.

According to the Gallatin County Sheriff’s Office -- that was in spite of a snow storm.

Bozeman City Police and sheriff’s deputies say it’s a good reminder of the effort -- which is still ongoing.

You can find drop boxes in most law enforcement offices across Gallatin County -- including the Law and Justice Center.
