WAKULLA CO., Fla. (WTXL) - On Saturday, April 26, 2014, the Wakulla County Sheriff's Office (WCSO) will take part in the National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day. Collections of unwanted medicines will be accepted from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Drug collection sites in Wakulla County are at the following locations:

- Crum’s Mini Mall on U.S. Highway 98 in Panacea

- Kangaroo Store # 138 on Woodville Highway in Wakulla Station
