SENIOR TRANSPORTATION
Friends of Seniors offers LaGrange and Pleasant Valley residents ages 60 and over free door-to-door transportation on Tuesdays or Thursdays.

Pickup begins at 9am and drop off is 12:30-1:30pm depending on the day’s scheduled location and senior needs. Seniors are required to be vaccinated and boostered.

One Tuesday or Thursday, seniors are driven to Route 44 Plaza where passengers can go to wherever needed in the plaza (StopNShop, Dollar Tree, Big Lots, bank, etc). After they are finished in the plaza, the van takes them to Adam’s Fairacre Farms.

The following Tuesday or Thursday, the van goes to the Malls: Poughkeepsie Galleria and/or South Hills Mall, wherever passengers want to go.

Sometimes passengers will need to stop at a bank or pharmacy closer to their homes and the van will take them there too!

Volunteer drivers are desperately needed to assist with this wonderful program! Volunteer drivers are fully insured by the towns of LaGrange and Pleasant Valley. Driver commitment is a minimum of once a month and must have a valid driver’s license and be fully vaccinated.
