County’s detox center prepares for football season, too

It is not just students, teachers and coaches who gear up for the school year and football weekends. Detox does too.

“We know we will have an increased number on football weekends. We’re prepared. We have to be,” said Melody Music-Twilla, who runs the Dane County Detox Center on Industrial Drive on Madison’s southeast side for Tellurian Ucan, Inc.

Between those sent to detox by Madison Police officers and University of Wisconsin-Madison campus police, Music-Twilla expects all 29 beds in the 24-48 hour triage center to be filled before the end of the night Saturday.
