The Waters of Greencastle has partnered with Rural Transit to provide free Rural Transit rides on the first Friday of each month. The program will begin this Friday. Rural Transit, which is part of Area 10 Agency on Aging, came to Putnam County in January 2009 with one bus and one driver. The program now has eight buses and nine drivers. In June, it had 3,906 passengers.

"We're all about partnering with anyone in the community like this. As long as it has a good public impact, we're there," Alsip said. "We just want to make a contribution to the community," South added. Banner Graphic/JARED JERNAGAN
