AARP safe driving class
A driver safety program sponsored by AARP will be offered for
seniors age 55 and older. The eight-hour course is presented under
the supervision of the Illinois secretary of state's office.
Participants must attend both days to become eligible for an
insurance discount certificate. Please check with your individual
insurance agent to see how much a safe driving certificate will save
you. The class will be June 12 and 13 at The Oasis. There is a $10
fee for supplies; please pay at the senior center prior to the
class.
