Addiction kills. In 2018, Lake County had the highest rate of drug-induced deaths in the state, according to Hope Rising. But recovery is possible, a fact that the Recovery Walk and Banner contest aims to spotlight. The event will feature speakers, family activities, resource booths, and raffle prizes. It will be held on September 16, 11 a.m.–3 p.m., at Library Park in Lakeport. See cityoflakeport.com/calendar.php for details.
