ABOUT TOWN

Drug card sign-up

The Displaced Workers of Tyson Striving for Success group will help sign up people for the Kansas Drug Discount Card between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. Saturday at the Emporia Public Library.

The free prescription drug card program can give consumers savings up to 75 percent. Although the sign-up event came out of response to Tyson’s local restructuring, anyone can receive the cards. Volunteers will be on hand, including interpreters.

Organizers said this is the same card offered at the Job Fair at the technical college, but, because of crowds, not everyone who wanted one was able to get one.

Dear Reader: Items for “About Town” may be mailed to The Emporia Gazette, P.O. Drawer C, Emporia, KS 66801; e-mailed to newsroom@emporiagazette.com or faxed to 342-8108.
