Our September meeting will be on WEDNESDAYS from now on. We will be using the room at the Fire Station again. (Remember that we decided to change to Wednesday's so we don't conflict with City Council meetings.)
Hope you can attend. We will need to assign some jobs for the Trick or Treat Path and also the Tree Lighting. Those will be our major topics of conversation.
Thanks,

CarFit Program
A new innovative program called CarFit is helping older drivers adapt their
vehicles to make them "fit" better. Trained volunteers use a 12 point
checklist to examine driver seat positions, the ability to reach the pedals, and
mirror position among other things. Following the 20 minute evaluations,
participants may consult a driver rehabilitation specialist who can suggest
ways to maintain and strengthen their driving abilities. The program is a
collaboration of AAA, AARP and other senior organizations. Appointment
necessary. Thanks to our CarFit coordinator, Dick Body.
