CORONAVIRUS

All Maine residents over 16 years old are now eligible for COVID 19 vaccinations, and It’s very exciting how easy it is to get a vaccination these days – some without a prior appointment. FMI: www.maine.gov/covid19/vaccines/vaccination-sites#mobileunits.

Be sure to save your vaccination card. Don’t laminate it, as it may need to be updated in the future. DO save it in a safe place – with other valuables – in case you need to show it as proof of vaccination.

AFCI NEWS

We’re excited to announce the reopening of our Neighbor-to-Neighbor (N2N) driver program starting May 16, 2021. If you aren’t familiar with our rides program, check out our website at www.agefriendlybethel.org. If you have used our program, we’re looking forward to seeing you again soon!

N2N is implementing the following pandemic guidelines as advised by the CDC: (1) All drivers and riders must be fully vaccinated (Please bring proof of vaccination to your first ride.). (2) All drivers and riders must wear a mask appropriately. (3) All riders will sit in the back seat on the opposite side of the driver’s seat. (4) For cross ventilation, all drivers and riders will open their window at least partially.

N2N serves Hanover, Newry, Bethel, Greenwood, Locke’s Mills, Gilead, Woodstock, Bryant Pond, Albany, and Mason. Rides can be for a variety of destinations – doctor’s appointments, shopping, church, errands, social events, etc. New: if you have a library card, we can deliver books to you.
Please call at least 3 days in advance to request a ride (or books). If a driver is available to fill your request, he/she will contact you for the details. The driver will pick you up, wait for you or make arrangements for another driver to do so when returning. Questions or requests for rides: 207-824-4444.
