The goal is to simply reduce the number of injuries that end up in emergency rooms. Residents can drop off rugs at many local coffee shops and get a free cup of coffee and mug. How it all works was discussed on WIZM La Crosse Talk with Sean Dwyer.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
