Fun and Games
A Reflection by Hilary
We here at Senior Services’ Transportation Program take our jobs very seriously, but there’s a lighter side to our work as well. One of my recent enjoyable experiences took place as I braved a full day of heavy rain to represent our organization at the Spokes for Folks festivities in Seattle.People of all ages did not mind getting wet as they stopped by my booth to learn more about our transportation programs and the myriad of other Senior Services programs, as well as our need for more volunteer drivers. A few current clients of Volunteer Transportation and the Hyde Shuttles stopped by to express their appreciation for these services, and other visitors entered my tent out of pure curiosity. In addition, our “Pin the Key on the Ignition” game was a huge success.
My time is often controlled by the not-so-fun reality that we are short volunteer drivers, but I always value these rare outreach opportunities. Rain or shine, I love interacting with our community and talking about the good work that we do!
