Round Towner gets a New Ride
Posted May 7, 2019 at 4:45 pm by Tim Dustrude
On Tuesday, May 7th, Round Towner celebrated the recent donation by the San Juan Lions Foundation of the “new” 2014 Nissan Leaf to replace their worn-out Honda.
The non-profit community service RoundTowner has just surpassed 18,000 essential rides to needy and disabled elderly folks in Friday Harbor over the past five and one-half years.
See roundtowner.org for more information.
You can support the San Juan Update by doing business with our loyal advertisers, and by making a one-time contribution or a recurring donation.

Could NOT be more thrilled than to see this fantastic new car driving around town with loyal, ever steady Bob Reilly at the wheel; what a GENEROUS donation, and well needed. Bob has stayed committed to giving needed rides whether he was paid or not, at much expense to h imself in older vehicles. Curt Van Hyning and I along with Charlie Anderson and task force maybe 8 years ago? saw the need and many have worked hard over the years trying to support minimal assistance for rides of disabled and elders. Thanks to the consistent committment by these folks and many donations to keep it going, they reached this point of an EFFICIENT car to continue the work so very much needed and appreciated; thanks to everyone, Lions and this community!
