Sheriff’s Posse Holds Very Successful Shred-A-Thon and Drug Take-Back Event

Bill Shedd

The Semi-Annual National Drug Take Back and Shred Event was held April 25 in Sun Lakes by the Sun Lakes Sheriff’s Posse, the Arizona Attorney General’s Office and The Hero’s Home Team. This Spring Event was a huge success with 600 cars going through the line. We shredded over 18 tons of paper, and collected approximately one ton of surrendered prescription and over-the-counter medications for destruction. Plus, with generous donations from the community and a local businessman, we brought in $3,000 for the MCSO Memorial Fund which is for fallen officers and first responders.

The Sun Lakes Sheriff’s Posse wants to thank the Attorney General’s Office, The Hero’s Home Team and all the volunteers that made this event a success. Our next one will be held in the Fall of 2026. Thanks to the Sun Lakes Community for your support.
