July 15, 2010 Transportation Action Team Meeting

According to the Seniors Needs Assessment , Seniors are in need of transportation to many regularly scheduled events and available services. The Transportation Action Team explored ideas to develop a sustainable van route, a “Van Plan”, including the ideas of partnering with local businesses and employing trained volunteers. All aboard the Van Plan… Join us at our next meeting is Thursday, September 16, 2010, 7:00pm.
