Have you checked your medicine cabinet lately? How about that junk drawer, or your purse? Chances are at least one of these sources will reveal outdated or unused medicines. You may find prescriptions or you may find outdated vitamins or over the counter drugs. You may forget about them but all too often our children will find them–intentionally or unintentional, the result can be the same. This Saturday, Mar. 13, from 2-4 p.m. the Eagle Point/Upper Rogue Chamber of Commerce is participating in a state-wide “Prescription Drug Turn-In Event.” Chamber members, with assistance from the Eagle Point Police Department, will be receiving your outdated medications and over-the-counter items. The police will then be in charge of their disposal. No liquids will be accepted. Items must be in their original containers. Your identification will be blocked off the item. Veterinary medications will also be received. Medications cannot be accepted from businesses such as nursing homes and doctor’s offices, but individuals from nursing homes may bring their outdated medications. The event is free and will only take a brief amount of your time. The turn-in event will be at the Ashpole Center, at Eagle Point City Hall, which is located on Buchanan St., between Linn and Main St., just two blocks off Highway 62. There will be a sign on the front door of the Ashpole Center. For more information call 541-826-6945, the Eagle Point/Upper Rogue Chamber of Commerce telephone. By Nancy Leonard Of the Independent |

The 17th annual Exotic Dessert Auction will be held Saturday, Mar.13 beginning at 7 p.m. at the Eagle Point High School Cafeteria. This event is full of fun and definitely a unique event. Each dessert is “teamed” with a donation. As an example, you might bid on a carrot cake and receive five lessons on a computer or bid on two dozen cookies for a month and get a very well done piece of art by a well known area artist. Home decorating items, artwork, lottery gifts, gift certificates to LaQuinta, Burger King, handmade quilts, raft trip out of Shady Cove, overnight at White Rock Resort on the coast and dessert for a year, are just a few of the items. The list goes on with the help of J.B. Dimick, as auctioneer, and his side kicks who are more than anxious to receive the highest bid. Your chances of winning a prize just because you are in attendance is rather good as the sponsors receive numerous donations for door prizes. Individual desserts as well as complimentary beverages are available to enjoy during the evening. Once again this event is sponsored by the Eagle Point Community Association in partnership with the Eagle Point High School Boosters. These groups serve kids and community and look forward to continued community support of the Dessert Auction. By Nancy Leonard Of the Independent |

There are two major fund raising events upcoming to benefit local residents struggling with cancer and the financial affects for them and their families. Times have been challenging for many of us, but not nearly as challenging as it is for these two community members. On Thursday, Mar. 18, there will be a benefit dinner and auction for the family of seven-year-old Ethan Jostad. Spaghetti is coming from Antonio’s and will be served by the capable hands of Jackson County Fire District 3 men and women. Coffee will be provided by Starbucks. Following dinner there will be a dessert auction.
