Seniors Around Town |
Beginning in August 2005, The Seniors Around Town (SAT)
pro gram
was designed to offer alternative transportation for
Orinda seniors who are no longer able to drive and who
may not qualify for the County Connection LINK system.
SAT is the only program of its kind in the county with
its ease of use, no cost, door-to-door service, and
eligibility to all Orinda seniors. Volunteer drivers
offer transportation to the Lamorinda, Berkeley and
Walnut Creek areas, Monday through Friday, between the
hours of 9am and 4pm.
All of our volunteer drivers must complete a thorough
DMV and criminal background check along with an
orientation/training.
 Upon a completed registration, a senior can call our
office with a reservation for a ride 48 hours in advance
of their need. Our office will find an available driver
who will contact the rider directly. The service is
free.
Volunteer drivers are always needed. As a volunteer, you
decide how often and how far you are willing to drive.
The rewards are tremendous; our clients are so grateful
to have this option which allows them to continue to
live independently.The Seniors Around Town programs
receives generous community support from proceeds at the
Annual Orinda Car Show. Click

about the annual event.
