In addition to the meal program. Outreach and Information and Referral, the Council Ser­ vices office, directed by Geri Davis, offers transportation, chore service, volunteers. Carrier Watch and publishes the monthly Council News. The Council maintains a 10-passenger mjni-bus for service to seniors throughout the area. This service is available by calling Ms. Davis at the Council office, 338-6075, the day before service is needed. The bus is available in the McHenry, Wonder Lake, Richmond area on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday and will provide transportation for shopping, doctors ap­ pointments. or visits to the McHenry Walk-In center. There is no charge for the service; however, donations are always welcomed. Chore service is provided on a limited basis to home-bound seniors who have no other support systems. Basic housecleaning and shopping are done for these home- bound who live alone and need assistance to continue independent living. To receive Chore service the person need only to call the Council office and Ms. Davis will evaluate the need and make arrangements for service. The Carrier Watch program instituted by Ms Davis in 1979 is a program in which a senior living alone can register with the Council office and they in turn notify the local post office that this person is alone. The post office then places a small "Carrier Watch" decal inside the mail box and the carrier then knows that if the mail is not taken from the box daily the senior might be in need of assistance He-she notifies the post office personnel, who calls Ms. Davis and she will then contact the senior, neigh­ bors. relatives or whoever the senior has listed on his registration. This program has been very effective in McHenry county and is now being used in surrounding areas The volunteer program enables people with spare time to assist seniors who need someone to talk to and visit with, shop, and provide small errands The Council News, published monthly and now going to nearly 7,500 seniors in the county, contains the Walk-In center menu, in­ formation of interest to seniors. articles, en­ tertainment and ads which help pay for its publication. AdS for help-wanted, situations, for rent and for sale are run free of charge to seniors Ms. Davis has been editor of the Council News since 1979 and sees it as a way of reaching the home- bound and isolated seniors throughout the county In many cases, the Council News is their only contact with other seniors.
