Silver Key Expands Transportation to Peterson AFB
Silver Key is pleased to announce that in July our transportation service area will expand to include Peterson AFB for veterans and their dependents age 60+. The service will be limited to Tuesdays with the first trip occurring on July 11th. A valid military ID will be required for all riders entering Peterson AFB.
Silver Key already provides transportation services to Ft. Carson on Mondays and the United States Air Force Academy on Thursdays. The addition of the Peterson AFB complex will allow more veterans and their families to access the benefits they have earned. These specialized transportation delivery routes are designed to increase accessibility to areas of the community that may not have many transportation options.
- For Reservations: Call 719-884-2380, 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Monday- Friday.
- Volunteer Drivers Needed: Volunteer drivers are in great demand. Volunteer drivers at Silver Key often begin as “temporary” drivers and find an immediate connection to those they assist, resulting in an amazing and rewarding volunteer experience. A good driving record, a regular driver’s license and four hours is all that’s necessary to join the dedicated volunteers who drive the Silver Key vehicles. To learn more about volunteering, please contact Linda Arguello at larguello@silverkey.org or
719-884-2319.
Silver Key is a local 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that relies on donations from our community to serve older adults in El Paso County. For more information, sponsor or volunteer opportunities, or to make a donation, please call 719-884-2300 or visit us online at www.silverkey.org.
