Good morning and welcome to your Morning Matters.
It’s Wednesday, April 21, 2021, and last week I shared my idea for using a piece of the $88.6 million in federal stimulus funds to pay off the Covelli Centre and use the center s future revenue for the ongoing benefit of the city.
I ll admit that sometimes my words are less than artful. Heck, I write a couple hundred of these morning missives per year. Some are better than others. Yet I learned a long time ago that readers can interpret another s words through their own experiences and come to a conclusion that bears no resemblance to the original intent.

OHIO VALLEY Local drug take back events are planned, in conjunction with National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on Saturday, April 24.
According to the DEA, “The National Prescription Drug Take Back Day addresses a crucial public safety and public health issue.”
Locally, a drug take back event will be held from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday at the Holzer Meigs Emergency Department, 41861 Pomeroy Pike, Pomeroy, as a collaborative effort between Holzer Health System, Meigs County Prevention Coalition and the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office.
In Gallia County, the drug take back event will be held from 10 a.m. to noon in the Holzer Center for Cancer Care parking area, 100 Jackson Pike, Gallipolis. The event is a collaborative effort between Holzer Health System, Gallia County Citizens for Prevention and Recovery and the Gallia County Sheriff’s Office.
The 20th National Prescription Drug Take Back day will be Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The Chautauqua County Sheriff’s Office, community partners and the Drug Enforcement Administration will provide the public with an opportunity to prevent medication abuse and theft by clearing out their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs. The event is to raise awareness and help community members dispose of unused or expired prescriptions at locations all across the county, free, anonymously and with no questions asked.
“Very often, unused prescription drugs find their way into the wrong hands that can result in tragedy. National Take Back Day provides hundreds of people the opportunity to clean out their medicine cabinets and dispose of prescriptions in a safe and anonymous manner” said Kelley Potter, HOPE Chautauqua DFC project director/coalition coordinator.
