Senior Free Ride Day-Saturday 08.21.21

August 21st is National Senior Citizens Day which was created to give back to seniors that have impacted our lives and to recognize the achievements of those who have already given so much.  The day provides an opportunity to show our appreciation for their dedication, accomplishments, and for all they have done and continue to do–we owe our seniors our thanks and gratitude.  Seniors 55 and older simply show your ID and ride all routes free on Saturday. This is the perfect opportunity to get some shopping done, visit friends or family or simply explore the city and our different routes.

The final Senior Free Ride day for 2021 will be on Saturday, December 11th. To learn more about this program click SeniorsFreeRide.
