Washington County District Attorney Pete Orput discussed the drug issues, specifically opiate use, in the County. A huge problem exists with the theft of prescription drugs such as Oxycotin and Oxycodone. These pain medications are frequently left unused in home medicine cabinets which are then stolen. Left over narcotics can be properly disposed of at the Washington County Court House.

Never thought about going to Brazil? Never been on a Rotary Friendship Exchange? Well the time is NOW! There is an exchange going to Brazil from June 10-19th this summer. I can personally attest it will be the experience of your life. My wife and I went on this exchange a couple of years ago and we still stay in contact with many of the people we met in Brazil. In fact, one of the daughters of a host family stayed with us for two weeks in 2013 and she will be back to visit next month. You will see fabulous beaches and mountains and meet fabulous people. The food is some of the best I've had anywhere and the beer, well it was just eh best ever. Add on a couple of days and see Igasu Falls, one of the seven wonders of the world. Well, ok, it should be. If you have any interest, please talk to me and I can give you all the details. Where else can you go on a luxury vacation for the price of an airline ticket and some minor incidental expenses. Almost all, if not all, of your lodging and food will be provided by your friends you haven't met yet. It is the experience of a lifetime!
