There will be two workshops, both Monday:

9 a.m. - 12 p.m.

Anyone eligible is encouraged to attend one of the workshops, and remember to bring a list of all prescription medication you are currently taking.

"The cost and coverage of the Medicare prescription drug plan can change over time," said Congressman Kingston.  "I encourage those people with Medicare to take this time to review those changes and make sure they still have the plan that best fits their needs or the needs of their loved one."
