Mad River Valley Seniors – Free Wheelin’
If you need a ride or would like to volunteer to drive, call Free Wheelin’ at 802-249-3427.
No Car? No License? Can’t Drive?
How are you supposed to get to a doctor’s appointment if you don’t have a car or if you don’t have a license? What if you have both but are recovering from an illness and don’t feel well enough to drive? Maybe you broke your hip or had knee replacement surgery. What then? How are you going to get groceries or drop in at the Mad River Valley Community Pantry, get to a hair salon or the post office? How will you meet your friends for lunch or special events with the Mad River Seniors?
Call Free Wheelin’ For a Ride
When you are living in as rural a location as the Mad River Valley, transportation is vital. Free Wheelin’ came to the rescue of many of our Valley’s seniors in June 2019 and we have given more and more rides ever since. Today we average 100 per month. That’s 5 a day.
Now don’t get us wrong. This is no taxi service. We’re not here to drive you to the airport or pick you up at a bar. No. We are here to serve the transportation needs of seniors in the Mad River Valley first. We are also pleased to offer our rides to anyone else in the Valley who is without transportation for doctor’s appointments or necessities.
