Reminders
This is probably the businest program for the Council on Aging. As a friendly reminder:
1. For out of town medical appintments, once you know of the date (2 weeks to a month in advance) please let our office know so we can accommodate accordingly. 243-5545
2. There is a $3.00 charge for round trip transportation out of town to help defray the cost of gasoline for the car.
3. For in town transportation, although there have been "standing orders " in the past, due to staff shortage, please call the day before to confirm your ride. We try our best to give you the same time each week, but sometines, the time frame requres a little more flexibility. Please double check that you are on the list.. Thank you.
