Take Backs, Taxes and a 'Rundown' Review

Good evening, Rockville.

It's rush hour and just like everyone else I'm rushing. A lot of this edition of "The Rundown" is a reminder of (you did put those on your calendar, right?), so let's get right to it in this rushing-towards-the-dinner-hour edition of "The Rundown":

• Meetings, we've got meetings. Be there tonight at 7 at  to discuss the feasibility of expanding Julius West in order to help ease overcrowding in Richard Montgomery cluster classrooms. Or if going green is your thing, from 7 to 8 tonight  hosts a presentation of renewable energy options for your home.
• No one went green in last night's Mega Millions drawing. Which means the jackpot just keeps climbing. . Today's Power Ball drawing stands at $101 million. If you win, please remember .
• If you win either jackpot you're going to need some help with next year's taxes. For those of you still looking for help with this year's taxes, the state comptroller's office is offering free tax preparation from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday at three branch offices, including. The 12 branch offices are open for free state tax assistance from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Additional hours of assistance will be offered from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on April 16 and from  8 a.m. to 7 p.m. on April 18 at all agency locations. This year's tax filing deadline is April 18. For more information go to www.marylandtaxes.com or by call 1-800-MD-TAXES for free state tax help.
• Got some old medication laying around? Rockville City Police are participating in National Take Back Day on April 30. Check out Rockville 11's story here for more details.
