SFBH celebrates March Team Member of the Month

Cindy Lucey has been named the March Team Member of the Month at Plant City’s South Florida Baptist Hospital.

Lucey is a clinical nurse in the intensive care unit and was nominated by her colleagues who said, “Cindy works well with her customers and peers. She goes above and beyond and takes the responsibility to find solutions. She’s an asset to our team and to BayCare as a whole.”

Lucey received her award during a surprise ceremony on Feb. 21.

Plant City to hold Drug Take-Back Day

The Hillsborough Anti-Drug Alliance, in partnership with the Plant City Police Department and Drug Enforcement Agency, will be sponsoring a drug take-back day.

The event will take place on Saturday, April 30 and volunteers will be set up on the sidewalk outside of the CVS on the corner of James L. Redman Pkwy. And Alexander St. from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. This event encourages people to safely dispose of any unused, unnecessary or expired prescriptions medications while providing a safe, convenient and responsible means of doing so and educating the general public about the potential for abuse of medications.

For more information on the DEA’s National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day and to find other collection locations, visit https://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/drug_disposal/takeback.

Plant City to host Sunset Hike

This is your opportunity to join Plant City’s Parks staff for a guided Sunset Hike at McIntosh Preserve, 775 E. Knights Griffin Rd.

Participants will be led on an easy 1.5-mile hike from the parking area to the preserve’s observation tower and back as the sun sets over Plant City’s beautiful wildlife. With any luck, you’ll have a chance to see deer and perhaps some of the preserve’s other inhabitants as they too come out for an evening stroll.

The event will be held on Saturday, June 4 at 7:30 p.m. and anyone who wishes to participate must pre-register by Thursday, June 2. Find the link to pre-register at ttps://www.plantcitygov.com/parksrec/page/sunset-hike.
